# Iran’s Foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, says sanctions on his country’s oil have been waived by the US, and some of its assets frozen abroad have been released. This follows talks between Washington and Tehran in Switzerland over the weekend. Mediators Qatar and Pakistan say with the bulk of its preconditions met, Iran will now permit some talks to take place on the future of its domestic uranium enrichment. Araghchi says the most difficult issue remains the future of the Lebanon crisis.
