Iran’s top diplomat says government is ready for talks with US on a nuclear deal

AI Summary
Iran's top diplomat signaled the government's readiness for nuclear deal negotiations with the US, potentially taking place in Istanbul later this week. This comes as US warships and aircraft amass in the region. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reportedly ordered the start of these talks, with Donald Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff expected to meet with Iranian representatives, possibly including Abbas Araghchi, alongside representatives from Arab and Muslim countries. The meeting, if it occurs, would be the first between US and Iranian officials since April. Tensions are high due to Iran's crackdown on protesters and the US military buildup in response.
