Iran's leadership is reportedly moving toward resuming nuclear negotiations with the United States amid the ongoing military and diplomatic pressures. According to multiple sources including Reuters and Israeli media reports, Iran's clerical elite, weakened by recent US and Israeli strikes, faces a critical decision between continuing its nuclear activities and risking further attacks or engaging in talks to avoid existential threats. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is said to support resuming talks out of concern over additional military confrontations. Iranian officials have indicated that direct nuclear talks with the US could be possible under suitable conditions. Despite the historical enmity toward Israel, there is discussion among analysts about a potential pivot toward a non-aggression understanding between the two countries. Market-based forecasts estimate a 14% chance that a deal will be reached in the renewed negotiations.
