Investing.com -- The Iranian government reaffirmed its commitment to diplomacy with the United States on Monday, despite the postponement of a fourth round of nuclear talks that were scheduled to take place in Rome on May 3. The talks were delayed due to unspecified logistical issues.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, stated that Iran remains dedicated to the path of dialogue and diplomacy. He noted that Iran has demonstrated its readiness by participating in several rounds of negotiations. He also emphasized that Tehran is flexible about the timing of the talks and is awaiting details from Oman, the mediator, about the next round of discussions with the U.S.

Baghaei further stressed that the actions and positions taken by the U.S. negotiating team are of primary importance to Iran. The spokesperson pointed out that contradictory statements from U.S. officials have been unhelpful but will not affect Tehran’s resolve to defend its key stances. This includes Iran’s right to enrich uranium domestically, a point of contention in the negotiations.

Baghaei’s comments underscore Iran’s commitment to continue diplomatic negotiations with the U.S., despite the postponement of the scheduled talks. The next date for the talks has not been specified yet, and will be determined following further communication with the mediator, Oman.
