Iranian media reported on the 22nd that the Iranian delegation refused to continue the Iran-US negotiations in Switzerland. Earlier, the Iranian delegation had suspended the Iran-US talks in protest against threatening remarks made by US President Trump.

Iran's Foreign Ministry stated that technical negotiations between Iran and the US will continue. US media reported that the US-Iran talks are still ongoing, with Iranian negotiators still present at the venue. The Prime Minister of Pakistan has departed for Switzerland to mediate the US-Iran negotiations.

Analysts point out that the twists and turns in the Iran-US talks reflect significant differences between the two sides on core issues. Trump's recent threatening remarks have further escalated tensions, prompting Iran to adopt a tough stance.
