Washington urges citizens to leave Iran as Iranian delegation arrives in Muscat

In a notable move, the U.S. State Department has called on its citizens to leave Iran "by any means possible," including departing by land via Armenia or Turkey. This directive comes while the Iranian negotiating delegation is in the Omani capital, Muscat, for indirect talks.

This American step recalls events from last June, when the United States not only provided political cover for Israel during the course of Iranian-American negotiations but also actively participated in military action. This behavior reflected Washington’s use of the diplomatic track as a cover for escalation rather than a path to a solution.

Observers believe this timing raises serious questions regarding U.S. credibility in the negotiation process. It reinforces suspicions that Washington is adopting a dual policy: keeping negotiation channels open for appearance's sake, while simultaneously pursuing security and military pressure and escalation.

In this context, statements made by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran last year have been circulating widely. He emphasized that "negotiating with such a government is irrational, lacks wisdom, is not honorable, and must be avoided," referring to what Tehran considers a U.S. record based on broken commitments and double standards.

According to informed sources, these developments reflect Washington's continued policy of sending contradictory messages at a time when the region is experiencing escalating tension and extreme sensitivity in both political and security tracks.
