According to a report by Israeli security analyst Yair Goldblatt, Italy will open an embassy in the Iranian capital Tehran on Friday. The report does not cite an official Italian or Iranian confirmation, and no venue details have been provided. The development follows recent diplomatic activity between European nations and Iran, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's call last week for the EU to impose further sanctions on Iran, as reported by N12, and the announced US-Iran talks in Geneva on Friday to set negotiation terms, reported by Iran's deputy foreign minister. It remains unclear whether the embassy opening is coordinated with these diplomatic tracks.
