Iran-US talks may begin soon, source confirms

An informed source confirmed the possibility that negotiations between Iran and the United States could begin in the coming days, potentially involving senior officials from both countries.
The source told Tasnim on Monday that while the precise time and location of the meeting have not yet been finalized, the talks are likely to take place between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and US president’s special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Earlier today, Spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmaeil Baqaei said Tehran was carefully studying the structure of potential negotiations with the US, with a focus on lifting sanctions and advancing national interests.

On the objectives of the negotiations, Baqaei stressed that sanctions relief is a core priority. He recalled that Foreign Minister Araqchi recently stated that the nuclear issue has long been misused as a pretext for imposing conflict on Iran, and added that in exchange for confidence-building regarding the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program, the country’s primary demand is the removal of unjust sanctions.
