Background to the conflict

Washington and Tehran are set to begin negotiations aimed at ending a six-week conflict that has killed thousands across West Asia, disrupted energy supplies, fuelled inflation, and slowed the global economy.

Talks in Islamabad are expected to focus on issues including sanctions relief, maritime security, and Iran’s nuclear programme.

Iran has placed conditions related to regional security and economic measures, while the United States has warned against any lack of good faith in negotiations.
