Opinion: Although the US-Iran negotiations have not broken down nor made a breakthrough, diplomatic efforts are still ongoing.

ME News report, April 12 (UTC+8). Despite extensive efforts from all sides, the US and Iran have still not reached an agreement. A draft understanding is on the table. Judging from Vice President Vance’s statement, there is still some possibility—he said this is their final and best plan. A source said the good news is that the negotiations have not broken down, but the bad news is that no breakthrough has been achieved. It is understood that the two sides have held about five rounds of talks, with written exchanges after each round, suggesting that some broader framework is already in place. At present, there is one proposal and one counter-proposal. We need to pay attention to Iran’s response, because the interviewed source believes the US has made maximum demands, especially on the issue of the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran is unwilling to make concessions on this matter.
