With US-Iran talks stalled, diplomatic efforts expand to unlikely European players

The Trump administration is expanding its diplomatic outreach to a wider range of European nations as current negotiations with Iran remain stalled. Faced with what officials describe as an increasingly bellicose stance from Tehran, the U.S. government is seeking new international partners to exert pressure on the Iranian leadership or encourage a shift in its hardline position.

This shift in strategy comes as traditional mediation efforts have failed to resolve the ongoing conflict. By engaging with countries that have not previously played a central role in these talks, the administration aims to break the current diplomatic deadlock and address the challenges posed by Iran's recent actions.
