It appears that the negotiations on the Iran war are entering a sensitive phase, reports AP.

Among other things, the mediating country Pakistan's army chief has traveled to Iran to try to help the talks move forward. A delegation from Qatar has also been there. At the same time, US President Donald Trump has suddenly changed his weekend plans. He refers to "circumstances" that mean he has to skip his son's wedding this weekend.

There is an American proposal on Iran's table, and according to Iran, it is being looked at now.

Despite speculation that things are happening behind the scenes, there is much to suggest that the parties are far apart, according to the news agency.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the US is making unreasonable demands and accuses the administration of “military aggression” against the country.
