Spokesman for Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the sixth round of indirect Talks between Iran and the United States is planned for next Sunday in Muscat. The Sultanate of Oman is mediating these talks and follows five previous rounds.

Why it matters:

These negotiations come at a time when Iran and the U.S. are trying to reach an agreement on nuclear issues. The outcome of the discussions could significantly impact the future of diplomatic engagement between the two countries.

 

The big picture:

The talks are part of ongoing diplomatic efforts to reduce tensions and seek common ground. Muscat, as the host, plays a crucial role in mediating between Iran and the U.S. Meanwhile, the U.S. is imposing new sanctions on Iran, which is against the deal.

 

The latest:

Esmail Baghaei also announced a trip by Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, to Norway. Araghchi will attend the 22nd Oslo Forum on Wednesday and Thursday, where key global and regional diplomatic issues will be discussed.
