Strategic Analysis Australia Director Michael Shoebridge says there is “zero trust” between the Iranian regime and the US as peace talks are set to take place in Qatar’s capital. “There’s absolutely no trust between Iran and America,” Mr Shoebridge told Sky News host Jaimee Rogers. “There are plenty of hardliners in the regime saying this peace negotiation is a bad idea. “I think we’ll see the Iranian regime keep saying formally it has no intention of getting a bomb, but of course, we don’t know what the future of their nuclear program is.”

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says Iran will fulfil its commitments if the United States adheres to the agreement. “Mutual understanding is a two-way street. If the American side adheres to the agreement, we will also fulfill our commitments,” Mr Pezeshkian posted on X. “Our approach to unreasonable saber-rattling and baseless threats is to rely on rationality and human dignity in decision-making, and to defend decisively and fearlessly when it comes time to act.”

Why the Iran-US ceasefire is falling apart | The Bottom Line

Neither Iran nor the United States seems able to deliver a “knockout blow at an acceptable price” to the other side, and both know “they have no choice other than engaging in diplomacy”, but they’re not ready to make uncomfortable concessions, argues Ali Vaez, director of the Iran Project at International Crisis Group.
