Iran says it had disagreements with the US on two or three important issues

Iran's Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that negotiations with the US failed due to a "gap between our positions on two or three important issues."

“In the end, the talks did not result in an agreement,” spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei told Iranian state television. He did not elaborate on what those issues were.

On several topics, according to Baghaei, American and Iranian negotiators “actually reached mutual understanding.” The negotiators discussed the Strait of Hormuz, Baghaei said, but did not mention any discussion regarding nuclear weapons.
