US Vice President JD Vance announced Monday that the United States has made significant progress in negotiations with Iran.

During an interview on Fox News, Vance indicated that the momentum for further diplomatic engagement now rests with the Iranian government.

Vance characterized the recent developments as substantial, though he did not provide specific details regarding the content of the discussions.

Diplomatic status

The Vice President emphasized that the next phase of the process depends on a decision from Tehran.

"The ball was in Iran's court when it came to whether a second round of talks would take place," Vance said.

The administration's current stance places the responsibility for initiating the next round of negotiations on the Iranian leadership.

Washington's position suggests that the groundwork for a follow-up session has been laid, provided Iran agrees to return to the table.
