    On April 12, Iran's Tasnim News Agency reported that some Western media outlets have begun to make "inaccurate descriptions" of the atmosphere surrounding the Iran-US negotiations in Islamabad, as the United States has failed to achieve its objectives in the talks. The report stated that only the Iranian and US negotiating teams and Pakistani officials were present at the Serena Hotel, and no media were allowed entry. Therefore, reports of "fierce clashes in the meeting room" and "handshakes between members of both sides" are purely media hype by the US to cover up its "repeated failures and weak position" in the negotiations. According to previous reports from Iranian media citing informed sources, the Iran-US negotiations in Islamabad have made no substantial progress since they began due to the US's "exorbitant demands." Some Western media outlets are exaggerating the "positive atmosphere" of the negotiations for the purpose of influencing international energy prices. Although there has been some progress in the expert-level talks, the two sides still have serious differences on several issues, including the Strait of Hormuz.

    April 12th - Significant differences remain between the US and Iran, primarily regarding the Strait of Hormuz and the unfreezing of funds. Meanwhile, Israel remains a potential disruptor. Iranian media and analysts point out that the current situation can be described as a transitional phase between war and peace, with the regional situation remaining fragile. A comprehensive agreement between Iran and the US in the short term is unrealistic, but reaching a preliminary framework or a lasting cessation of hostilities is not impossible—however, it is crucial to consider whether Israel will seriously undermine this process at a critical moment.

    On April 12, local time, the third round of talks between Iran and the United States in Islamabad concluded. Iran described this round as the "last chance" to reach a framework agreement. Since April 11, the two sides had a busy schedule, consulting late into the night, with all parties vying for the temporary ceasefire window and intensifying their maneuvering. However, sharp differences remained on three core issues: control of the Strait of Hormuz, unfreezing overseas assets, and uranium enrichment. Outside the negotiating table, the US military announced mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz, while the Israeli Prime Minister declared that he would continue to strike Iran and its proxies. With the ceasefire window closing, diplomatic maneuvering and military actions are escalating simultaneously, and the situation in the Middle East is at a crossroads between war and peace.
