US President Donald Trump’s top envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner will head to Geneva this week for talks with Iranian negotiators over Tehran’s nuclear program, the White House confirmed Sunday.
A US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed that the two men, who have been Trump’s lead Iran negotiators, would represent Washington for the talks.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will represent Tehran in the negotiations, his ministry reported earlier. He will also meet with his Swiss and Omani counterparts and the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Tehran and Washington restarted negotiations in Muscat, February 6, months after previous talks collapsed when Israel launched an unprecedented bombing campaign against Iran last June that started a 12-day war. (AFP)
