“We have come here upon the invitation of Norway’s government to take part in Oslo Forum,” said on Monday Salehi after his arrival to Norway.
He went on to say that officials of international organizations and many foreign ministers will attend this forum.
Meetings with UN Secretary-General António Guterres, Norway’s Prime Minister Erna Solberg and Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Soereide are planned, Salehi added.
JCPOA will be one the most important topic of discussions, he said, adding, “we will clearly explain Iran’s stance in this regard.”
The Oslo Forum 2018 will be held on June 19 and 20 at Losby Manor, outside Oslo.
The forum convenes senior conflict mediators, high level decision makers, key peace process actors, analysts and experts in an informal and discreet retreat to share their experiences, identify challenges and reflect on mediation practice. The first forum, established in 2003, only included 17 participants but the event has now expanded to around 100 participants.
