A sixth round of nuclear talks between Tehran and Washington planned for this weekend has been cancelled, mediator Oman said Saturday, following waves of Israeli attacks on Iran.
"The Iran US-talks scheduled to be held in Muscat this Sunday will not now take place," Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said in a post on X, adding that "diplomacy and dialogue remain the only pathway to lasting peace".
Earlier on, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had confirmed to Qatari-owned television station Al Jazeera that the negotiations were cancelled.
Asked on Saturday, “Can we have a clear confirmation that Sunday's talks are cancelled?”, Araghchi responded, “Yes”.
Tehran called discussions about its nuclear programme with the Washington as “meaningless” after Israel launched its biggest-ever military strike against Iran, which Tehran accuses the US of supporting.
