The United States says it will allow an Iranian delegation to enter the country to attend United Nations meetings in New York. The move is happening as the conflict has passed the halfway point of a six-month period. According to the BBC, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi are among the officials who may be granted permission to travel to the US. The decision means they can participate in UN-related events in New York, rather than being blocked. The announcement is seen as a practical step for diplomacy. It also shows that, even during a difficult and tense time, countries may still make room for international meetings.
