THE United States and Iran on Saturday concluded a second round of high-stakes talks on Tehran’s nuclear programme, with Iranian media saying the discussions took place in a “constructive atmosphere”. The Oman-mediated talks in Rome began at around 0930 GMT and ended around four hours later, according to Iranian state television. Images broadcast by the state TV showed Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arriving in the Italian capital, with US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff also expected to participate. Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said the delegations were “in two different rooms” at the Omani ambassador’s residence, with Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi passing messages between them. — AFP
