Recent indirect negotiations between Iran and the U.S. in Muscat, Oman, concluded with both sides describing the sessions as “difficult but useful.” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei announced that the talks improved understanding of each party’s positions on critical issues, including Iran’s nuclear program and sanctions. He confirmed that Oman would organize the next round of discussions. Led by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and U.S. Special Envoy Steven Witkoff, the talks faced challenges, particularly regarding uranium enrichment, which Araqchi deemed “non-negotiable.” The discussions lasted several hours, focusing on finding realistic solutions to ongoing tensions.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi recently praised his predecessor, Hossein Amirabdollahian, for his exceptional diplomatic skills during a ceremony honoring victims of a helicopter crash in East Azerbaijan Province on May 19, 2025. Araqchi acknowledged Amirabdollahian’s significant influence on the foreign policy principles under President Ebrahim Raisi’s administration. He highlighted improvements in Iran’s relations with neighboring countries, referencing Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein’s presence at the event as evidence of successful diplomatic efforts. Araqchi emphasized the current administration’s commitment to continuing this diplomatic progress and enhancing Iran’s international standing through effective relationships.
Iran’s Parliament speaker, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, emphasized Imam Khomeini’s pivotal role in confronting the threats from the Zionist regime during a ceremony at Khomeini’s shrine, marking the 46th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution. He noted Khomeini was among the first Muslim thinkers to warn about these threats, citing the Shah’s ties to Zionists as a key motivator for Khomeini’s uprising. Qalibaf expressed confidence in Khomeini’s vision for the liberation of al-Quds, criticizing Zionism as the source of global corruption. His comments reflect a commitment among Iranian lawmakers to uphold Khomeini’s principles during the Ten-Day Dawn observance.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that the “maximum pressure” strategy and related resolutions have failed against Iran, asserting that Tehran will not negotiate under threats. During a press conference, he outlined key foreign policy principles: no negotiations under pressure, the importance of dignity in diplomacy, and the need for actions rather than words from the U.S. administration. He criticized a recent Presidential Memorandum by President Trump aimed at reinstating pressure on Iran, emphasizing that it highlights the U.S. commitment to this strategy following its withdrawal from the nuclear agreement. Trump’s openness to negotiate a new deal was also noted.
