The United States allows an Iranian delegation, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, to attend the UN General Assembly in New York next week, according to a US official.
Channel NewsAsia reports that this includes Pezeshkian specifically, while Free Malaysia Today cites a US State Department spokesman confirming that the decision covers the Iranian president. Both accounts describe the move as a permission granted by the US for Iranian officials to participate in the UN meeting at the UN headquarters in New York.
The sources do not provide additional details on the scope of attendance beyond naming Pezeshkian, nor do they describe specific conditions attached to the approval. The reports focus on the US confirmation and the timing ahead of the upcoming UN General Assembly sessions, presenting the same core information from US officials.
