The United States and Iran are looking toward another round of talks after a preliminary deal expected to be signed Friday.

The United States and Iran are preparing to move quickly into another round of negotiations, with Iran’s foreign minister saying talks would begin immediately after a preliminary deal is signed Friday.

The comment points to a swift diplomatic follow-up as both sides look beyond the first agreement. President Trump said he hoped the conflict would soon be in the “rearview mirror,” framing the moment as a possible turn away from confrontation.

The next step, for now, is the Friday signing. After that, the focus is expected to shift to whether the two governments can sustain momentum and define the issues for a new round of talks.

The substance of the preliminary deal was not detailed in the supplied report, and the scope of the next negotiations remains unclear. What is clear is that both governments are publicly looking past the initial accord toward another phase of diplomacy.

Whether that opening holds will depend first on the signing and then on how quickly Washington and Tehran move from a preliminary arrangement to more concrete negotiations.
