Political analyst Leila Maruti, referring to the contradiction in media reports about the negotiations between the United States and the Islamic Republic, says that Turkey and Pakistan are trying to reduce tensions between Tehran and Washington due to their neighborhood with Iran and the concern about the consequences of the war. According to him, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Arab countries in the region are also seeking mediation, but the unresolved dispute over the Islamic Republic's nuclear program is still one of the main obstacles to reaching an agreement or a lasting ceasefire.
