The fourth round of nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran, originally scheduled for May 3 in Rome, is expected to be postponed until next week, Global Affairs Correspondent for Axios Barak Ravid said.
The delay could also affect a planned May 2 meeting between Iran and the E3 nations — France, Germany, and the United Kingdom — also set to take place in Rome.
The fourth round of U.S.-Iran talks which Oman said will take place in Rome this Saturday is likely to be postponed for next week, three sources tell me. As a result E3 meeting with Iran planned for Friday in Rome might also be postponed

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed earlier this week that Tehran anticipated holding talks with the United States on May 3, mediated by Oman, which has played a central role in facilitating dialogue between the two nations. Speaking on April 30 during a cabinet meeting, Araghchi also noted that a separate meeting with the E3 powers was expected to occur on May 2.
So far, two rounds of U.S.-Iran talks have been held in Muscat, Oman’s capital, with a third conducted at the Omani embassy in Rome. The discussions aim to curb Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for relief from U.S. economic sanctions—part of an ongoing effort to ease decades of hostility.
