Russia and U.S. National Security

U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met in Geneva with Iranian negotiator Abbas Araghchi, Omani mediator Badr al‑Busaidi and IAEA chief Rafael Grossi for a lengthy third round in which Iran presented a written draft, agreed technical teams would go to Vienna, and both sides planned a fourth round next week. The confidential IAEA report says Iran has not allowed inspectors back into sensitive sites struck in June, leaving its enrichment claims unverified as U.S. officials press for limits amid a major U.S. military buildup, an authorized voluntary departure of some non‑emergency embassy staff from Israel, and Sen. Marco Rubio’s scheduled Monday‑Tuesday visit to Israel.
