Sultan Haitham bin Tariq al-Said of Oman is scheduled to visit Moscow on Monday, just days after the commencement of a new round of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks mediated by Muscat.
The Sultan is expected to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday to discuss regional and global issues, with a focus on strengthening bilateral cooperation.
The Kremlin confirmed the meeting, adding that discussions would cover various topics, including trade and economic ties. However, specific details regarding the agenda were not disclosed.
The timing of the Sultan’s visit coincides with the start of a new round of nuclear negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, which began on Saturday in Rome. These talks aim to resolve the longstanding standoff over Tehran’s nuclear program, with U.S. President Donald Trump threatening military action if diplomacy fails.
Ahead of these talks, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Moscow. Lavrov reiterated Russia's willingness to assist and mediate in the ongoing nuclear discussions, emphasizing Moscow's readiness to play a constructive role.
Russia has been actively involved in Iran's nuclear negotiations, having been a key player in the 2015 deal that Trump abandoned in 2018. As a veto-wielding U.N. Security Council member, Russia continues to advocate for diplomatic solutions to the nuclear standoff between the U.S. and Iran.
The Sultan's visit to Moscow marks a significant diplomatic engagement, highlighting Oman's role as a neutral mediator in Middle Eastern affairs.
