Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting in Tehran on Wednesday, Araqchi said he will join his Russian and Turkish counterparts in Doha for a ministerial meeting of the Astana process.
He explained that the Astana format meeting will be held in Doha only because the three ministers will participate in the Doha Forum 2024 in the Qatari capital.
Araqchi noted that the upcoming session of the Astana process will exclude Qatar.
The top Iranian diplomat will travel to Qatar after a visit to Baghdad.
