The Ball is in the United States' Court: Araqchi

The responsibility for negotiations lies with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, announced Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.

"The offer for direct negotiations is unacceptable for us for several reasons, which we have repeatedly mentioned; however, we are prepared for indirect negotiations through Oman," he stated.

Currently, the ball is in the United States' court to respond to the Islamic Republic's proposal, although we are not in a hurry," emphasized the Iranian Foreign Minister.
