Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi, has traveled to Muscat for the fourth round of indirect talks with the U.S., facilitated by Oman, focusing on Iran’s nuclear program and regional security. Araqchi emphasized Iran’s undeniable right to enrich uranium and expressed hope for constructive outcomes despite challenges from inconsistent U.S. positions. He reaffirmed that Iran’s nuclear agenda is legally grounded and subject to IAEA oversight. Iran seeks trust-building measures while maintaining its core principles as non-negotiable. Araqchi believes a reasonable agreement on nuclear weapons is achievable, though unrealistic demands could impede negotiations. An expert team is already in Muscat for discussions.

European nations are attempting to invoke the “snapback” mechanism to restore sanctions, facing legal criticism due to the US withdrawal from the JCPOA. Despite Iran’s cooperation with the IAEA, there are calls within its parliament to consider withdrawing from the NPT. The IAEA’s perceived politicization raises questions about its effectiveness. As Iran grapples with extensive Western demands beyond nuclear issues, it reassesses its engagement with international treaties, emphasizing the need for fair diplomatic strategies.
