The US-Iran technical talks in Switzerland have concluded successfully, and will allow both sides to move toward negotiations at higher levels, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi announced on Tuesday.

The next stage of talks will be overseen primarily by senior officials on both sides, including Iran’s Parliamentary Speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, and Vice President of the United States, JD Vance.

The conclusion of the first session of talks was initially announced in a joint statement on Monday morning by mediators Qatar and Pakistan.

According to the two countries, the talks were conducted in a "positive and constructive atmosphere," despite the Iranian delegation walking out of negotiations on Sunday night in protest at US President Donald Trump's threats to resume strikes unless the Strait of Hormuz is reopened.
