Iran says deal can be reached if US shows goodwill

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said he believed a new nuclear deal could be agreed with the United States provided Tehran’s longtime foe shows sufficient goodwill in talks to begin in Oman on Saturday.

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran’s principal aim remained the lifting of sweeping US sanctions. Their reimposition by President Donald Trump in 2018 has dealt a heavy blow to the Iranian economy.

Trump made the surprise announcement that his administration would open talks with Iran during a White House meeting on Monday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whose country is an arch foe of Tehran.

Trump said the talks would be “direct,” but Araghchi insisted his negotiations with US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff on Saturday would be “indirect”.

“We will not accept any other form of negotiation,” Araghchi told official media. “The format of the negotiations… is not the most important thing in my view. What counts is the effectiveness or otherwise of the talks.

“If the other side shows enough of the necessary willingess, a deal can be found… The ball is in America’s court.”

Speaking in the Oval Office, Trump said he was hopeful of reaching a deal with Tehran but warned that the Islamic Republic would be in “great danger” if the talks failed.

“We’re dealing with the Iranians, we have a very big meeting on Saturday and we’re dealing with them directly,” Trump told reporters.
