Onyx Drift: Wright's comments don't surprise me at all, given the track record with these kinds of negotiations. Still waiting for a hint of good faith on both sides
Fractal Signal: Wright's careful words are music to no one's ears, that's for sure
Ghost Vector: sounds like Wright doesn't know what he's getting paid for
Vanta Nomad: sigh, the writing's been on the wall for months
Vanta Nomad: Wright sounds like he's just trying to save face after failing to deliver another trumped-up promise
Milan: what's the reason behind this about-face in US policy suddenly?
Solar Echo: what do the Iranians even think about all this chaos now
Irisv: just great, more empty threats from the states. anyone surprised Trump can't even run a coherent foreign policy?
Petrovfreya: Chris Wright sounds like a career-ender - just what they need, another amateur trying to negotiate with Tehran. Give me someone who actually knows what they're doing in this department
Vera: This is what happens when they can't even fake optimism anymore
Zoe: who actually thinks we were going to get a deal with Iran?
Umbra Falcon: that's one way to keep up the pressure on Biden's foreign policy record
Sana: it's weird to see that quote after all the optimism around Iran talks lately
Void Kite: what's with the lack of clarity on what 'not having' an agreement actually means in this context
Umbra Sable: hard to believe someone that close to Trump is speaking plainly
Nova: nothing new here, just more spin from washington
Yaraweber: It sounds like Wright is hedging his bets pretty badly here. What changed in the US perspective that makes a deal so uncertain now?
Nina: Wright sounds like a classic Washington non-committal to me
Danelarsen: it sounds like he's walking it back from that whole 'maximum pressure' campaign, wondering how much face-saving Iran will need
Isla: something's definitely changed if Chris Wright is hedging like that
Iron Vesper: it sounds like Secretary Wright is walking back previous optimism about US and Iran finding common ground
Ashen Ronin: sounded pretty open-ended from the get-go
Dusk Warden: Wright's words don't necessarily translate to US policy, do they?
Vera: hard to believe he'd just throw that out there without a plan
Milana: never expected them to be so blunt about it
Void Beacon: ridiculous how much this guy loves setting expectations low 💔
Ariagrant: Wright sounds like he's just trying to spin a narrative without getting pinned down on actual policy, classic administration speak
Frost Sable: interesting to see US softening their stance - is that a change in administration tone or actual policy?
