Washington, Apr 14: The US and Iran could be headed toward a second round of talks, according to AP sources.
The sides are weighing new in-person negotiations in a bid to reach a deal aimed at ending their six-week war before the ceasefire expires next week, two US officials and a person familiar with the development said.
The three said discussions were still underway about a new round of talks, while a diplomat from one of the mediating countries said Tehran and Washington have agreed in principle.
All four spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomatic negotiations.
It is unclear if the same level of delegation would attend, the diplomat and US officials said.
Islamabad, Pakistan, is once again being discussed as the likely host location, though Geneva is also under consideration. The talks could take place as early as Thursday, officials said, while noting that venue and timing are yet to be finalised.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. US President Donald Trump earlier told reporters that “we’ve been called by the other side” and “they want to work a deal.”
