Iran's foreign minister claims there are ‘initiatives’ being discussed in the nuclear negotiations following discussions with his Omani counterpart in Tehran.
The primary objective of Omani FM Sayyid Badr Albusaidi's visit was to deliberate the JCPOA and further explore the ‘initiatives’ put forth by the Omani side in pursuit of resolving the nuclear agreement's impasse, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian revealed in a statement on Wednesday.
The unanticipated visit of Oman's senior diplomat sparked media speculation regarding the fate of the JCPOA revival talks. Notably, during the visit, Iran's market experienced a decline in the dollar's value to 480,000 rials, with media outlets like Etemad Online attributing this development to Minister Albusaidi's discussions in Tehran.
In light of this, Amir-Abdollahian stressed Oman's "dedication to bridging the gap between all parties involved in the JCPOA and restoring their adherence to the agreement's commitments.”
Oman has played a crucial role as a mediator between Iran and the United States in the nuclear negotiations, exemplified by the recent indirect talks reported between Tehran and Washington in Oman.
Highlighting the longstanding diplomatic ties, Amir-Abdollahian also referred to the Sultan of Oman's meeting with the leaders of the Islamic Republic during his visit to Tehran in late May. It was revealed that the discussions during the recent visit between the foreign ministers also included deliberations on the bilateral agreements between the two sides.
