The foreign ministers of the three guarantor states of the Astana process -dedicated to ending armed conflicts in Syria- will hold a meeting in the capital of Qatar on the sidelines of the Doha Forum 2024, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said.

According to The Iran Project, Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting in Tehran on Wednesday, Araghchi said he will join his Russian and Turkish counterparts in Doha for a ministerial meeting of the Astana process.

He explained that the Astana format meeting will be held in Doha only because the three ministers will participate in the Doha Forum 2024 in the Qatari capital.

Araghchi noted that the upcoming session of the Astana process will exclude Qatar.

The top Iranian diplomat will travel to Qatar after a visit to Baghdad.
