It says the unusual arrangement reflects intense bilateral tensions after earlier conflict and clashes. The reports add that Pezeshkian wants to present Iran as a victim of aggression, while formal negotiations with Washington are not planned during the summit. A separate report says he and Foreign Minister Syed Abbas Araghchi will use the visit to push messages about peace, regional oppression, and declining trust in the international body.
