The 60-day window for negotiations between Washington and Tehran has closed. The interim deal, established by President Donald Trump in June, was intended to provide a timeframe to reach a more lasting peace.
President Trump stated that the cease-fire agreed upon in June would lead to limitations on Iran’s nuclear program and bring an end to the conflict.
Despite these goals, broader talks are now at a standstill. The two sides appear to be further apart now than they were when the memorandum of understanding was signed in June.
