Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Friday the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Nethanyau is trying out of “utter desperation” to disrupt the current indirect nuclear negotiations process between Iran and the United States.
At the time Tehran and Washington are set to resume a new round of nuclear talks, Araghchi wrote on his X account, Israel and “certain special interest groups are attempting to derail diplomacy”.
His message was a reaction to a FOX News report on an alleged secret nuclear facility in Semnan, north-central Iran, which citing satellite imagery provided by the People's Mojahedin of Iran Organization (MKO), claimed it was a suspected nuclear site.
After the 1979 Islamic Revolution which toppled pro-west shah monarchy, Iran banned the MKO which was an anti-shah organization. MKO took side with Iraqi dictator Saddam Hossein during his 1980-88 war on Iran.
With Netanyahu’s “credibility in tatters and exposed as a saboteur” and under his policy of “determining what the US president can do and cannot do policy”, Araghchi added, he is using MKO in “utter desperation”.
Iranian and the US diplomats are working on the date and venue of the fourth round of nuclear talks mediated by the Sultanate of Oman which started in April.
The US wants Iran to halt its nuclear enrichment program. However, Iran says this demand is a redline and wants removal of unilaterally-imposed US sanctions. Both sides have termed the talks as constructive.
According to a Foreign Ministry press release here on Friday, the Iranian foreign minister is scheduled to visit Saudi Arabia to meet high-ranking officials on Saturday and then Qatar to take part in the Iran-Arab World Dialogue Summit.
His visit comes ahead of the upcoming summit meeting of Persian Gulf Arab leaders and US President Donald Trump scheduled for May 14 in Riyadh as well as the next Iran-US talks expected to be held next week.
