Indirect U.S.-Iran talks ended last week without any public sign of headway toward a lasting peace, despite a 60-day ceasefire intended to create space for diplomacy following the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran.
However, with no breakthrough achieved, President Donald Trump warned that Washington would either reach a comprehensive deal with Iran or "finish the job," reiterating the possibility of military action. Meanwhile, Iran has displayed defiance and unity following the funeral of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, underscoring its determination as both sides remain locked in a diplomatic stalemate.
