Iran’s chief negotiator at nuclear talks with world powers will return to Tehran for a “short visit” to consult with the Islamic Republic’s leadership as efforts to revive a 2015 deal reach a critical juncture.
Ali Bagheri Kani will leave Vienna late on Wednesday, Iran’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement. It said senior European envoys will also travel to their respective capitals for consultations, without giving details. The U.S.’s top diplomat in the talks, Robert Malley, said he won’t be traveling. There was no statement on travel plans from any of Iran’s European interlocutors.
