“The three parties will exchange views on the Iranian nuclear issue and other issues of mutual interest,” a Foreign Ministry spokesperson said on Wednesday.
Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu will chair the meeting in Beijing, which will be attended by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov Sergey Alexeevich and Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi.
The meeting will follow a closed-door gathering of the United Nations Security Council in New York the same day regarding Iran’s expansion of its stocks of uranium that are close to weapons-grade.
During US President Donald Trump’s first term, which ended in 2021, Washington withdrew from the landmark 2015 Iran nuclear deal that had imposed curbs on the country’s nuclear programme in return for sanctions relief.
Tehran adhered to the agreement for a year after Washington’s withdrawal, but then began rolling back its commitments.
Efforts to revive the pact have since faltered. (Agencies)
