Iran, U.S. talks expected to continue Saturday in Rome

A second round of nuclear talks between the U.S. and Iran is expected to take place in Rome on Saturday

Axios cites two sources “with knowledge of the issue”.

More:

• Trump administration was satisfied with the first round of talks … achieved their objective of shifting the format from indirect —handled through intermediaries — to direct, with officials conversing directly
• The two lead negotiators, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, spoke for around 45 minutes on Saturday — longer than was revealed publicly

Improved US-Iram relations will be watched by oil traders, bearish for the price at the margin (chance of supply boost would be the reasoning)
