Iran-US Negotiations Still Possible, Says Mediterranean Studies Center Director

The door to negotiations between Iran and the United States has not closed, according to Dr. Ahmed Rafiq Awad, director of the Mediterranean Center for Studies.

Awad described the confrontation between the two countries as passing through a period of uncertainty, with its direction still unclear.

His assessment leaves open the possibility of diplomacy despite the confrontation. He did not characterize the path to negotiations as definitively blocked.

The remarks offered no details on potential talks, their timing or the conditions under which either side might agree to negotiate.
