DUBAI (Reuters) - Abbas Araqchi, Iran's seasoned top diplomat, faces one of his most delicate challenges ever this weekend as he prepares to lead talks with the U.S. to secure a new nuclear deal and avert a military strike against the Islamic Republic.
His country's clerical establishment is approaching the talks in Oman warily, sceptical of progress and suspicious of U.S. President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly threatened to bomb if no deal is reached.
