Iran had demanded that the venue for the nuclear talks with the United States, which are scheduled to begin on Friday, be moved from Turkey to Oman. This time, the talks are set to begin in Oman on Friday in accordance with that demand. Iran had requested that the venue for the meeting be Oman, in continuation of the previous round of talks, according to bdnews24.com.

Moreover , regional officials said Iran wanted to avoid any broad discussions on issues such as ballistic missiles. Iran has said it will not make any concessions on its ballistic missile program. Iran wants to discuss only its nuclear program with the United States. On the other hand , the United States wants to discuss with it a number of other issues, including ( ballistic ) missiles and the activities of Iranian-backed armed groups across the region.

US President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner , US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi are expected to attend the meeting. In addition , ministers from Pakistan , Saudi Arabia , Qatar and the United Arab Emirates , Egypt and several other regional countries are also expected to attend the meeting. But Tehran only wants bilateral talks with the US, a regional source said. Trump has been warning that something bad could happen if the meeting does not reach an agreement. In this way, he is putting pressure on Iran.

The entire region is now on edge due to the growing US military presence in the Middle East and fears of a new attack on Iran. Meanwhile, US warplanes destroyed an Iranian drone in the Arabian Sea on Tuesday. However, US President Trump later claimed that they were holding talks with Iran. Steve Witkoff and Araqchi met for the first time in person in Muscat, the capital of Oman, on April 2 last year to discuss a nuclear deal. But that meeting failed. And now, with Trump's threat of attack and the US aircraft carriers USS Harry Truman and USS Carl Vinson , as well as the USS Abraham Lincoln, in the Gulf region. In addition, Iran is also under pressure due to unrest within the country.
