Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani arrived in Oman on Tuesday, just days after a new round of nuclear discussions between Iran and the United States took place in Muscat. According to Iran’s state news agency IRNA, Larijani is scheduled to meet with Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tariq and Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad al-Busaidi during his visit.

Reports indicate that the meetings will focus on recent regional and international developments, as well as efforts to strengthen economic cooperation between Iran and Oman. The visit follows renewed diplomatic engagement between Tehran and Washington, which held direct talks in Oman last Friday.

The Muscat discussions marked the first direct dialogue between the two countries since the 12-day Iran–Israel conflict in June of the previous year, highlighting Oman’s continued role as a mediator in regional diplomacy.
