Diplomats from several countries were meeting Saturday at a Swiss retreat in a bid to maintain dialogue on the preliminary US-Iran deal to halt the Middle East war, said Bern.
The Swiss foreign ministry said diplomats were in discussions at the luxury Burgenstock resort near Lucerne in central Switzerland, without giving further details.
A diplomatic source told AFP the discussions under way on Saturday were preparatory in nature.
Senior-level talks at the hotel complex were initially planned for Friday, but were called off, with the process shrouded in layers of uncertainty, as Israel carried out deadly strikes in southern Lebanon on Saturday.
Swiss public broadcaster RTS said technical delegations from the United States and Iran, plus from mediators Qatar and Pakistan, were present at the discussions.
“Switzerland continues to provide a discreet and reliable setting to facilitate talks at Burgenstock on the implementation of the memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran,” the foreign ministry said in a brief statement.
“Diplomats from various countries currently present are continuing their efforts to maintain the dialogue.
“No further information can be provided regarding those present or the discussions,” it added.
