⌨The newspapers extensively report on the fifth round of Iran-US nuclear talks in Rome, describing them as both "professional" and "complex" (Al-Alam, BBC Persian, Radio Farda). Foreign Minister Araghchi characterized the negotiations as "one of the most professional rounds" where "new proposals and solutions were presented that could be path-breaking" (BBC Persian, IRNA). A senior US official called the talks "constructive" with "more progress made" (BBC Persian, Tasnim).
