Negotiations between Iran and the United States currently underway in Switzerland have been put on hold temporarily, though they have not been terminated entirely, an Iranian source disclosed to Reuters.

The temporary pause in discussions does not signal a breakdown in talks, the official indicated, suggesting that diplomatic engagement between the two nations remains viable. Both delegations are maintaining their positions and appear prepared to reconvene negotiations at a future point.

The precise timeline for resuming the discussions has not been disclosed, nor have details emerged regarding the specific agenda items or substantive disagreements that prompted the pause.
