Iran and the United States have started the fourth round of indirect talks in the Omani capital of Muscat, focusing on Iran's nuclear program and the removal of sanctions against Tehran.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and US President Donald Trump's regional envoy Steve Witkoff are leading the negotiating teams. The talks are mediated by Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr Albusaidi.
Like the previous rounds, the Iranian team is comprised of technical experts in legal, nuclear, and economic fields.
The talks follow previous rounds that began on April 12, marking the highest-level contact between Iran and the US since Washington withdrew from a landmark nuclear agreement in 2018 and re-imposed tough economic sanctions on Tehran.
The foreign ministers of Iran and Oman met on Sunday ahead of the latest round of negotiations.
During the meeting, Araghchi praised the efforts of Albusaidi and the Omani government in hosting the talks and playing a facilitating role in the process.
