The Swiss Foreign Ministry says Iran and the United States will hold a second round of talks over Tehran’s nuclear program this week.

Iranian students, doctors, lawyers, athletes and more have been caught up in a dragnet arresting people believed to be involved in anti-government protests.

WASHINGTON, Feb 11 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said after talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday they ⁠reached no "definitive" ⁠agreement on how to move forward with Iran but he insisted negotiations with ⁠Tehran would continue to see if a deal can be achieved.

The slow rise in the number of dead from the demonstrations adds to the overall tensions facing Iran both inside the country and abroad as it tries to negotiate with the United States over its nuclear program.

Iran's appointment as vice-chair of UN Commission for Social Development faces sharp criticism from human rights advocates and Iranian activists calling it a 'mockery'.

Secretary of State Rubio says Trump is open to meeting Iran’s leader but insists Tehran will never obtain nuclear weapons, as the US boosts forces and pursues a potential deal.

A rally in North York Saturday that drew an estimated 350,000 people called on the Canadian government to recognize Iran's exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi as the leader of Iran’s democratic transition after anti-government protests erupted in Iran at the end of last year.

Iran’s exiled Crown Prince urged President Trump to strike Tehran — warning negotiations with the regime are futile as protesters continue dying daily. Reza Pahlavi said Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s regime is showing signs it’s on the brink of collapse and a military attack by the US could deliver the fatal blow.
