Verdict history
| When | From | To | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-30 18:00 UTC | 2026-11-03 | 2027-01-27 | Checked in the one-time pass of 30 Oct 2026: still open. Iran denied direct talks (ev-20261027-kg0h) and the record holds only Axios reporting of Omani-led mediation; nothing independent shows Iran asked for a meeting or that direct US-Iran meetings took place. Next check on the ladder from 2026-07-27 (7 days, 30 days, then quarterly). |
