Iran says UAE’s Gargash will deliver Trump’s letter to Tehran

DUBAI: US President Donald Trump’s letter to Iran’s clerical establishment will be delivered by Anwar Gargash, diplomatic adviser to the president of the United Arab Emirates, Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson said on Wednesday.
Trump said last week that he had sent a letter urging Iran to engage in talks on a new nuclear deal.
Gargash was due to meet Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi on Wednesday, Iranian state media said. Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei did not give details about the meeting.
Iran is expected to hold a fifth round of talks with the European powers involved in the nuclear deal — France, Britain, and Germany — and has confirmed a meeting in Beijing on Friday with the other members, Russia and China.
