Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., confirmed on Tuesday that he met with Iran's foreign minister.
Murphy's tweets confirmed an earlier report that Murphy and other Democratic senators held a secret meeting with Zarif.
"I’m not the President or the Secretary of State — I’m just a rank and file U.S. Senator. I cannot conduct diplomacy on behalf of the whole of the U.S. government, and I don’t pretend to be in a position to do so," Murphy wrote.
