Iran has expressed its willingness to continue negotiations with the United States. President Pezeshkian emphasized that talks must protect Iranian rights, while Foreign Minister Araghchi stated that a deal is "one step away," criticizing excessive and shifting US demands. The United Nations has urged both sides to maintain dialogue, describing recent discussions in Islamabad as a positive step. According to a RIA Novosti report citing The Atlantic, the next round of direct US-Iran talks may take place in Islamabad on April 16.
