U.S. and Iranian delegations concluded a third round of indirect talks in Geneva on Feb. 26, without a diplomatic breakthrough to avoid potential armed conflict in the Middle East.

The U.S. military has been ramping up its force footprint in the Middle East since January, as President Donald Trump has pursued a new deal to halt Iran’s nuclear programs. Talks in Geneva came the same week the Trump administration raised allegations that Iran is trying to rebuild its nuclear program and pursue a warhead after the June 2025 U.S. strikes on three of its nuclear sites.

Despite not reaching a deal on Thursday, mediator and Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi signaled some progress and indicated the parties are prepared to continue talks.

“We have finished the day after significant progress in the negotiation between the United States and Iran,” Albusaidi said in an X post. “We will resume soon after consultation in the respective capitals.”

Albusaidi said the parties would meet next week in Vienna for a round of technical discussions.
