So that is specifically over the nuclear file, what happens to the enriched, highly enriched uranium that Iran is sitting on, what happens to control over Hormuz and the blockades, the double blockade that we've witnessed over the last several weeks, what happens to the proxies.
the missile program, just about everything.

They don't seem to be moving towards something that potentially, you know, sets the clock ticking for a more definitive, long lasting peace agreement and then to the war.
Certainly from the U.S.
side, it's going to be the vice president, along with Wyckoff and Kushner.
From the Iranian delegation, we're not entirely sure yet, although they were supposed to have arrived yesterday.
Again, some vagueness about whether that actually happened.
And it's entirely conceivable that others may join, too.
Clearly, there is huge regional pressure here to get some sort of ceasefire.
I mean, the difficulties that they will have going into this talks are the same difficulties that preceded the war, which is the two sidesβand I'm thinking specifically about the U.S.
