Iranian FM says Tehran seeks ‘fair and dignified agreement’ in US talks

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Saturday that Iran is aiming for a balanced outcome in its indirect talks with the United States.

“Our intention is to reach a fair and dignified agreement from an equal footing,” Araghchi told reporters in Muscat.

He added that progress depends on the approach of the US delegation, which is being led by President Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff.

“If the other side has entered with the same mindset, there is a chance for an initial understanding that could lead to a negotiation path,” Araghchi said.

The foreign minister also said the parties could agree on the structure of talks if there is enough political will. “If there is sufficient will, we can decide on a timeline for negotiations,” Araghchi noted.
