Rubio orders Iran UNGA delegation to leave United States following stalled negotiations - report

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has reportedly ordered the Iranian delegation to the United Nations General Assembly, including Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, to depart the United States. The directive follows the reported collapse of indirect negotiations between the two nations aimed at reaching an agreement to end the ongoing war. A US official confirmed the order to the press, noting that the US mission to the UN had formally notified its Iranian counterpart.

While multiple reports indicate the delegation was instructed to leave, Iranian officials have officially denied that such an order was issued by the US government. The situation remains a point of diplomatic contention as the status of the Iranian delegation in New York continues to be debated following the impasse in talks.
