The foreign minister of Oman, who acts as an intermediary in the indirect talks between Iran and the US, announced that the fresh round of negotiations, slated for coming Saturday, has been postponed, according to Tasnim News Agency.

“For logistical reasons we are rescheduling the US-Iran meeting provisionally planned for Saturday, May 3rd. New dates will be announced when mutually agreed,” Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi announced in a post on his X account on Thursday afternoon.

A correspondent of Axios had also reported that the fourth round of Iran-US that were scheduled to take place in Rome on May 3 may be postponed for next week.
