Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif will attend the next round of talks on the Syrian conflict in the Austrian capital Vienna on Thursday, a ministry spokesperson has announced.
“Based on invitation for the Islamic Republic of Iran to participate in this summit, the foreign minister will be present in Vienna at the head of a high-ranking political delegation for talks on the situation in Syria,” Iran’s state-run Press TV quoted Merziye Afham as saying.
American, Saudi, Russian and top Turkish diplomats held the first round of talks in the Austrian capital last week in an attempt to end the four-year-old civil conflict through a negotiated political transition.
