Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met with Tom Fletcher, the United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, on the sidelines of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly in New York on Saturday, Iran's state news agency IRNA reported.
The meeting was one of several bilateral engagements Araghchi held during Iran's participation in this year's UN General Assembly session.
IRNA's report did not disclose specific details of the topics discussed between Araghchi and Fletcher during their meeting.
The UN General Assembly's annual gathering in New York regularly serves as an occasion for senior officials, including humanitarian coordinators, to hold sideline talks with foreign ministers from countries around the world.
Fletcher's office oversees UN coordination of humanitarian relief efforts in crises worldwide, a role that frequently involves engagement with member states on humanitarian access and funding issues.
