Tehran instructed foreign minister to avoid photos with US envoy

Iranian state TV reported on Tuesday that Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, who is also leading Iran’s negotiating team, was instructed not to appear in any photographs alongside the US envoy during ongoing nuclear talks.

According to IRIB’s “Foreign Policy” program, directives issued for Saturday’s negotiations prohibit the publication of photos showing Araghchi alongside Steve Witkoff, the US special envoy and head of Washington’s delegation.
