ROME, Italy — The Iranian foreign minister says that the next round of talks with the United States over Iran’s advancing nuclear program will be in Oman with US envoy Steve Witkoff on April 26. But experts will meet there in the days before.
The comments by Abbas Araghchi suggest movement in the second round of talks between the two countries, held today in Rome.
There was no immediate readout from the US side after several hours of meetings at the Omani Embassy in Rome’s Camilluccia neighborhood.
“The talks were held in a constructive environment and I can say that are moving forward,” Araghchi tells Iranian state television. “I hope that we will be in a better position after the technical talks.”
