Geneva: Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has once again rejected threats against Iran, saying his trip to Geneva to hold indirect talks with the United States are aimed at reaching a just and equitable deal. 'I am in Geneva with real ideas to achieve a fair and equitable deal. What is not on the table: submission before threats,' Araghchi wrote in a post on his X account after arrival in the Swiss city on Monday.
According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Araghchi also outlined other diplomatic agenda in Geneva, saying he will meet 'Rafael Grossi (Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency) for deep technical discussions, as well as Badr Al-Busaid (Foreign Minister of Oman) ahead of diplomacy with (the) US on Tuesday.'
Araghchi, at the head of a high-ranking diplomatic and specialized delegation, landed in Geneva on Sunday night. The Iranian delegation is scheduled to hold talks with the US tomorrow (Tuesday) with the mediation of the Omani foreign minister.
The first round of talks was held in Muscat last week, which was described by the two sides as a 'good start'.
