--

According to The New York Times, the preliminary agreement reached between the United States and Iran has been in chaos due to differences in terms, with core provisions such as freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz not being clearly defined. The negotiations originally scheduled to be held in Switzerland have been cancelled, the itinerary of US Vice President JD Vance has been cancelled, and subsequent talks have been indefinitely postponed. The Swiss diplomatic department stated that negotiations have been suspended and there is currently no timetable for their resumption. There are differences in interpretation between the United States and Iran regarding nuclear program arrangements, easing of sanctions, and freedom of navigation. The United States and Israel have differing positions on the agreement, with Israel stating that it is not bound by the agreement and will continue to maintain military operations in the region.
