Iran may hold talks on restoring the 2015 nuclear accord with world powers on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly next week as the country looks to make further changes to its nuclear-negotiations team.

Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian will leave for New York on Monday and will meet representatives of the nuclear deal member-states “if such meetings will be useful,” Saeed Khatibzadeh, a foreign ministry spokesman, told reporters at a press conference in Tehran on Sunday.
