Pakistan to host next round of US-Iran talks on July 11 - reports


MOSCOW: (Bernama-Sputnik/RIA Novosti) Negotiations between the United States and Iran will resume in Pakistan on Saturday (July 11), according to Al Arabiya news channel on July 4, reported Sputnik/RIA Novosti. 

The talks will reportedly cover sanctions, Iran's frozen assets and the nuclear issue.

The composition of the Iranian delegation will be determined after the funeral of former Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, which is set for July 9, the channel reported.

Overnight into June 18, Iran and US remotely signed a memorandum providing for an end to the military conflict that began on Feb 28.

The document also sets out timelines for US to lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports and for Iran to restore shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran also commits not to acquire nuclear weapons, with the issue of Iran's nuclear programme to be resolved through a separate agreement.

The parties will hold negotiations on this matter within 60 days. For Tehran, the outcome should be the lifting of anti-Iran sanctions. - Bernama-Sputnik/RIA Novosti
