State Department clamps down on Iran's UN delegation and movement

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is heading to New York City, but the U.S. State Department is keeping his entourage slim and his movement limited.

The Iranian leader will be speaking at the U.N. General Assembly this week, where he will be delivering an address on Wednesday. He is also expected to meet with various world leaders and Iranian expatriates living in the United States. He will be joined by his chief of staff, Mohsen Haji-Mirzaei, and deputy head of presidential protocol and ceremonies, Seyyed Abbas Mousavi.
