In a significant development regarding the ongoing nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced that Tehran is prepared to make concessions if Washington meets certain requirements. This statement comes ahead of a scheduled meeting between Araghchi and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff on Thursday, February 23, 2026. Araghchi expressed optimism, stating, "I believe that when we meet, probably this Thursday in Geneva again, we can work on those elements and prepare a good text and come to a fast deal." This follows a series of indirect talks mediated by Oman, aimed at averting military conflict as tensions escalate due to a significant U.S. military buildup in the region, including the deployment of two aircraft carriers. President Donald Trump has set a deadline of 10 to 15 days for Iran to reach a deal, warning that failure to do so could result in "really bad things."
