Top Iranian and US negotiators will meet again on Saturday to hammer out a new deal curbing Tehran’s advancing nuclear program, while US President Donald Trump signalled confidence in clinching a pact that would block Iran’s path to a nuclear bomb.

Axar.az reports, citing Reuters, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi will negotiate indirectly with Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff in Muscat through Omani mediators, a week after a second round in Rome that both sides described as constructive.

Talks are set to begin at the expert level, which will start drawing up a framework for a potential nuclear deal ahead of an indirect meeting between the lead negotiators.
