After the conclusion of the first round of talks in Switzerland over the weekend, technical talks between the US and Iran were supposed to continue this week. However, the latest update now is that talks will only be scheduled to take place again some time next week.
According to the Pakistan camp, who are acting as mediators to the situation:
"The technical level talks are on. The talks will resume next week, perhaps Tuesday or Monday. This is a temporary break and the talks will continue. Our delegation was there in the technical talks and will be there when they resume."
Well, I guess all we can do now is wait to see how long the status quo can hold. As a reminder, the technical talks are supposed to focus on nuclear/uranium discussions. And until we get to that, Iran has maintained that nothing will be changing in the meantime.
So, the only thing we can pay attention to now is how things will continue to play out with regards to the Strait of Hormuz reopening.
