Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian will travel to New York for a United Nations meeting. The trip comes as U.S. President Donald Trump warned of severe consequences if Tehran does not reach a deal.
Trump said he could destroy Iran's economy or remove its leadership if no agreement is made. His remarks make diplomatic efforts more difficult.
The UN meeting was seen as a chance for talks. Trump's warnings have raised doubts about whether those talks can succeed.
