Jerusalem Post: U.S. grants visa to Zarif for U.N. meeting, limits his movement to 6 blocks
The comments come just a few days after US President Donald Trump pledged to "substantially" increase sanctions on Iran.
WASHINGTON - The United States has granted a visa to Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif to attend a U.N. meeting in New York this week, two sources familiar with the matter said on Sunday, saying Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had approved the decision.
Had Pompeo not approved giving Zarif, Iran's top diplomat and nuclear negotiator, a US visa it could have been a signal that the United States was trying to further isolate the Islamic Republic.
Although Pompeo approved Zarif's visa, he limited his movement to the UN headquarters, the Iranian embassy and his quarters - a total distance of six blocks.
“U.S. diplomats don’t roam around Tehran, so we don’t see any reason for Iranian diplomats to roam freely around New York City, either,” Pompeo said.
