The 57-year-old career diplomat, who was named foreign minister in August by ultraconservative President Ebrahim Raisi, was a close confidant of military strategist General Qassem Soleimani

who was assassinated in a US dronezap early last year.

"His general health is satisfactory and he is continuing his daily duties from quarantine," ministry front man Saeed Khatibzadeh tells the official IRNA news agency.

Khatibzadeh had said just Monday that talks with the remaining parties to the 2015 nuclear deal would resume "in the next two or three weeks," although he added that ministers would not take part.

The talks have been on hold since before Raisi’s election in June.
