Iran Signals Push to Address Nuclear Standoff Despite Sanctions

Iran’s foreign minister said the country is ready to resume efforts to resolve its nuclear standoff but called cooperation with the UN atomic watchdog “insufficient.”

In comments published Sunday on his official Telegram channel and addressed to foreign diplomats in Tehran, Abbas Araghchi said Iran is “ready to pursue any solution that helps build trust” over its nuclear situation, adding “there is now no excuse left for Western countries to hinder Iran’s cooperation or negotiations.”
