Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will travel to Moscow later this week, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei confirmed on Monday.
The spokesman said the trip, which will precede a second round of Iran-US talks in Rome, had been planned in advance.
“Based on a prearranged schedule, the Foreign Minister will travel to Russia later this week and during this visit, various issues—including the latest developments in Muscat—will be discussed," he said, referring to the first round of talks with the United States held in Muscat.
Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, said Araghchi is scheduled to meet with his counterpart Sergey Lavrov as well as other senior Russian officials.
