Iran's Foreign Minister Hussein Amir Abdullahian stated that "the window for nuclear negotiations is still open but it will not remain so forever," criticizing "the hypocrisy of Western powers." This remarks were made during his visit to Oman, which serves as an important regional mediator, according to the French Press Agency.
The visit to the Arab Gulf nation, which is also close to the West, comes at a time when nuclear negotiations have reached an impasse, and tensions have escalated between the Islamic Republic and Europe and the United States.
Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tariq received Abdullahian in Muscat and accepted a message from Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi "regarding the aspects of cooperation between the two friendly countries in various fields within the framework of the good bilateral relations they share," as reported by the Omani news agency.
The Iranian Foreign Minister indicated that "the nuclear issue was at the top of the discussions" and warned during the meeting that "the window for reaching an agreement will not remain open forever," as evident in a video broadcast by official media.
Abdullahian condemned "the hypocrisy of Western countries, particularly the United States," emphasizing that he "is not sure that the open window today will remain so tomorrow." He cautioned that "if the Western powers want to continue their hypocritical and interventionist behavior, we will head in another direction."
