MOSCOW, Feb 6 (Reuters) – The Kremlin said on Friday ‍that it hoped that negotiations between Iran and the United States in ‌Oman would ‌yield results and lead to a de-escalation and urged all sides to ​show restraint in the meantime.

Iran ‍and the ​United States ​started high-stakes negotiations on ‍Friday to try to overcome sharp differences over Tehran’s nuclear programme, ‍with Oman shuttling between the sides, but a ‍dispute ‍over widening ​the agenda risked ​derailing ⁠diplomacy and triggering ‌another Middle East conflict.
