On the 15th local time, during a meeting with senior state officials, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei expressed his position on negotiations on the nuclear issue between Iran and the United States. Khamenei said that the negotiations between Iran and the US in Oman are only one of dozens of tasks in the country's foreign affairs, and Iran should not link the country's issues to the negotiations. Khamenei said that Iran is neither too optimistic nor too pessimistic about the negotiations. “Of course, we're pessimistic about each other, but we're optimistic about our abilities.” Indirect negotiations between Iran and the US took place on the 12th in Muscat, the capital of Oman. This is the first formal negotiation between the US and Iran since Trump unilaterally withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement during his first term in May 2018. According to reports, the two sides plan to hold the second round of talks in Rome, Italy on the 19th.
