US-Iran peace talks moving in ‘positive direction

Rashid Al-Mohanadi, vice president of the Center for International Policy Research, says there are signs that negotiations are moving in a “positive direction” to end the US-Israel war on Iran.

However, he warned that “anything can go wrong” as tensions remain high.

Speaking to Al Jazeera, Al-Mohanadi said the discussions are centred on a memorandum of understanding (MOU), which would establish a framework and open the door for 60 days of negotiations.

“I do believe they might even need more than 60 days because many of these topics are highly technical,” he said.

He also noted that post-conflict dynamics could complicate the process, as both sides are portraying themselves as victims, making longer negotiations more difficult.
