Key discussions are set to resume as Iran and the United States will meet this weekend to address Tehran's advancing nuclear ambitions. The negotiations, facilitated by Oman, mark a critical diplomatic engagement as tensions remain high.
Tehran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, confirmed the talks, which will take place in Oman, a key mediator in previous discussions. The meetings will involve both indirect and direct communications between Iranian representatives and US Mideast Envoy Steve Witkoff, as confirmed by a source familiar with the proceedings.
This round of negotiations follows a series of stringent US sanctions under President Trump, who has imposed a 'maximum pressure' campaign against Iran. This diplomatic effort comes ahead of Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, amid ongoing threats from Iran regarding potential nuclear weapon development.
