DUBAI, May 9 (Reuters) - Iran has agreed to hold a fourth round of nuclear talks with the United States on Sunday in Oman, the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Friday, adding that the negotiations were advancing.
Sayyid Badr al Busaidi, the Foreign Minister, said, "After coordination with both Iran and the US, the fourth round of negotiations is set to take place on Sunday, 11 May in Muscat.
Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, plans to attend the talks in Oman, a source familiar with the matter said on Friday.
"The negotiations are moving forward, and naturally, the further we go, the more consultations and reviews are needed," Araqchi said in remarks carried by Iranian state media.
The delegations require more time to examine the issues that are raised. But what is important is that we are on a forward-moving path and gradually entering into the details."
The fourth round of indirect negotiations, initially scheduled for May 3 in Rome, was postponed, with Oman citing "logistical reasons".
Araqchi said his planned visit to Qatar and Saudi Arabia on Saturday was in line with "continuous consultations" with neighbouring countries to "address their concerns and mutual interests" about the nuclear issue.
