Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has signaled that a nuclear agreement with the United States remains within reach, provided Washington adopts a realistic and constructive approach ahead of the second round of negotiations with the Trump administration.
Iran is open to reaching a deal on its nuclear program with the United States, provided Washington adopts a realistic approach, Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Friday, ahead of a second round of talks with the Trump administration.
Speaking at a press conference in Moscow following discussions with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Araqchi stated, “If they show genuine intent and avoid making unrealistic demands, an agreement is achievable.”
Araqchi noted that Iran had observed a serious attitude from the U.S. during the initial round of talks held last week in Oman. The next round is scheduled to take place in Rome on Saturday.
U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that military action against Iran remains an option if a deal is not reached. While Iran maintains that its nuclear program is strictly peaceful, Western countries suspect it is aimed at developing nuclear weapons.
Lavrov expressed Russia’s willingness to support the dialogue, saying, “We are ready to assist, mediate, and take on any role that benefits both Iran and the U.S.”
Russia has previously played a key role in Iran’s nuclear negotiations as both a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council and a signatory to the original nuclear deal, which Trump withdrew from in 2018.
Araqchi was also carrying a letter from Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei to President Vladimir Putin, intended to update the Kremlin on the latest developments in the negotiations.
Meanwhile, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reiterated that while the U.S. seeks a peaceful resolution, it will not allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon.
