The scope of the upcoming indirect negotiations will be limited to the nuclear issue and the removal of sanctions against Iran.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and US president’s special envoy Steve Witkoff are going to attend the talks.

On Monday, Spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmaeil Baqaei said Tehran was carefully studying the structure of potential negotiations with the US, with a focus on lifting sanctions and advancing national interests.

On the objectives of the negotiations, Baqaei stressed that sanctions relief is a core priority. He recalled that Foreign Minister Araqchi recently stated that the nuclear issue has long been misused as a pretext for imposing conflict on Iran, and added that in exchange for confidence-building regarding the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program, the country’s primary demand is the removal of unjust sanctions.
