A US diplomat at the Swiss venue told reporters the Iranian delegation was involved in \u201crobust discussions on all elements of the nuclear deal\u201d, and gave clarifications on Iran\u2019s messaging \u201con the Strait and building deconfliction mechanisms to ensure the Strait will remain fully open.\u201d<\/p>\n
