Putin Proposes Mediation in Iran-US Conflict After Talks Fail
• Naijanews • Politics
Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed readiness to mediate the ongoing conflict between Iran and the United States after recent talks concluded without a resolution. The Kremlin disclosed a statement indicating Russia's support for diplomatic efforts aimed at resolving the crisis. The negotiations, which took place in Islamabad, ended without an agreement, leading to the withdrawal of the entire US negotiation team, including chief negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. This development follows a series of discussions that failed to produce a meaningful breakthrough. US officials confirmed that no members of the delegation remained in Islamabad to continue back-channel negotiations. The breakdown of talks has heightened concerns regarding the potential escalation of tensions in the Middle East. Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf criticized the American delegation for failing to establish trust during the negotiations, further complicating the diplomatic landscape.
