Iran’s foreign minister arrived in Oman to talk with the United States about Iran’s nuclear program.

Abbas Aragchi told Iranian state television that his country wants a “fair agreement” as delegations from both sides are preparing for negotiations.

US President Donald Trump last month sent a letter to Iran’s supreme leader through the United Arab Emirates, saying he wanted a deal to prevent Iran from acquired nuclear weapons and preventing possible military strikes from the US and Israel.

Trump removed the United States from a previous nuclear agreement between Iran and the world forces in 2018 and has long stated that he would conclude a “better” deal. So far, Iran has rejected the renegotiation of the agreement.

These discussions are the highest level after Trump’s first office of service, but it is unclear whether the two countries will sit in the same room.

“It is our intention to reach a fair and honorary agreement from the same position, and if the other party also comes from the same position, then we hope that there will be a chance for an initial understanding that will lead to a path of negotiations,” said Aragchi.

He added that the team that came with him was made up of experts “knowing in this particular area and who have a history of negotiations on the subject.”

Araragchi said the conversations were “indirect” and are limited to the question of their nuclear program.

Trump revealed the upcoming negotiations during a visit to the White House on Monday by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said on Tuesday that both leaders agreed that “Iran will have no nuclear weapons.”

Trump warned the US would use military force if a deal was not reached and Iran repeatedly stated that it would not negotiate under pressure.

The US president told reporters in the Oval cabinet on Monday that the Oman weekend meeting would be “very big”, also warning that “it would be” a very bad day for Iran “if the conversations are not successful.

Iran insists that his nuclear activities are completely calm and will never strive to develop or acquire nuclear weapons.

However, as Trump withdrew from the 2015 agreement – which expires later this year – Iran increasingly violates the restrictions imposed by the existing nuclear transaction, from revenge for mutilation of US sanctions, restored seven years ago, and has saved a sufficiently strong natural uranium to make several bombs.
