Iran, US ‘sincere’ about ceasefire, Turkey’s foreign minister says
Fidan said a 45- to 60-day extension could follow if Washington and Tehran bridge the nuclear dispute, with mediators helping.
- On Monday, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated both Iran and the United States remain "sincere" about reaching a ceasefire, despite the weekend collapse of Pakistan-mediated talks in Islamabad.
- President Donald Trump blamed the breakdown on Iran's "refusal to abandon its nuclear ambitions," while the 15-day ceasefire window proved insufficient for finalizing a comprehensive agreement.
- Fidan warned that if the nuclear issue becomes an "all-or-nothing" dispute, it could create "serious obstacles," though he expressed hope that mediators could help the parties "overcome this."
- Urging the Strait of Hormuz be reopened "as soon as possible," Fidan cautioned against international military intervention, noting the issue may be resolved in "about 2-3 weeks" through diplomacy.
- The foreign minister explicitly named Israel as a persistent "spoiler" in the negotiations, warning that Israel's spoiler role "must always be calculated" to prevent further escalation.
