Let's talk about the negotiations between the US and Iran.
This was stated by Russian political analyst Sergey Markov.
"1. The Iranian delegation consists of 71 people. It is large.
2. The reason is that there are many technical experts who need to negotiate with the US: A. Lifting of sanctions against Iran; B. The technique of Iran charging fees for the use of the Hormuz Strait; C. Techniques to monitor the ceasefire and guarantee that the US will not attack again.
3. Iran's most important demands in the negotiations: A. Israel must stop the war in Lebanon; B. The US should immediately start removing financial obstacles and lifting sanctions against Iran; C. Iran's right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes; D. Iran should charge fees for the use of the Hormuz Strait; E. Compensation payments to Iran for rebuilding the destruction.
4. The negotiations are being held by Vance, Whitkoff, and Kushner.
5. The Iranian delegation is officially called Minab-168 because on the first day of the war, the US army killed 168 girls at a school in the city of Minab.
6. Iran plans to conduct the negotiations as the victor.
7. Forecast. The most likely outcome is that there will be no full agreement on peace. And the ceasefire will be extended repeatedly. The US will officially not agree to Iran's demands but will agree in practice.
8. The Iranian delegation is led by the Speaker of Parliament Mohammad Baqir Qalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
9. The negotiations are not direct; the delegations are in different rooms, with Pakistani diplomats moving between the rooms," Markov emphasized.
It should be noted that the first stage of negotiations between US and Iranian representatives took place yesterday. Discussions continue./axar.az
