A: Hey Hana-chan! Did you hear about the news? Something about Iran and the US?
B: Oh, really? No, what happened? Tell me!
A: Well, they're going to talk this Friday in Oman! About Iran's nuclear stuff.
B: Wow! That’s a big deal! I thought things were tense.
A: Yeah, exactly! Talks stopped a while ago, remember? After the US military... did something?
B: Right, right! I remember hearing about that. What are they planning to talk about?
A: Mostly about Iran's nuclear program and maybe lifting some sanctions.
B: Sanctions? That’s complicated! But wait, I heard Secretary Rubio wants to talk about other things too? Like missiles?
A: Yep! He wants to talk about other issues, like their missiles and... stuff.
B: Hmm. Sounds like it could get tricky. Is the US getting serious then?
A: They’ve sent a big ship, the USS Abraham Lincoln, over there! Pretty serious stuff.
B: Seriously! Do you think they’ll actually agree on something?
A: Someone who knows a lot about this said they need to be a little more flexible. Small steps, you know?
B: Fingers crossed! It’s so important to avoid another conflict, isn't it?
A: Totally! Let's hope it goes well. We'll see what happens!
