Iranian Foreign Minister received a US visa and arrived in New York

This was reported to TASS by the spokesman for the post-mission of Iran to the UN, Alireza Mirusisef.

“Yes, he received a visa and has already arrived in New York,” the diplomat said.

Earlier it was reported that the United States will impose sanctions on Zarif, but later the media noted that Washington decided to temporarily not include the minister in the sanctions list.

In Iran, they stressed that the sanctions of the United States, imposed on the eve of the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, "forever close the path to diplomacy."
