Multiple Issues Complicate Washington-Tehran Talks, Political Science Professor Says

The range of issues on the table is hampering the negotiating process between Washington and Tehran, according to political science professor Dr. Tarek Fahmy.

Fahmy said communication channels between the two sides remain open despite the difficulties surrounding negotiations.

He pointed in particular to contacts through Qatar, highlighting its role as a channel of communication between Washington and Tehran.

His assessment draws a distinction between maintaining contact and advancing negotiations, with the number of issues under discussion remaining an obstacle to progress.
