The spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry announced here on Monday that the talks have remarkably progressed and that Iran is waiting for decisions from the United States and the Europe.
Saeed Khatibzadeh made the remarks at his weekly press briefing in Tehran.
Asked about removal of the nonnuclear sanctions, Khatibzadeh replied that Iranian delegation presented its proposals in written form after going back to Vienna Talks from Tehran; meanwhile, all sanctions which are obstacles to Iran’s economic interests and are inconsistent with the other side’s commitments have to be lifted.
About the process of the talks, the spokesman said what has remained are the most serious and toughest issues that should be solved.
If “we reach a point” where the other side thinks that Iran would ignore its red lines and people’s rights, they should know that the country will never make a deal on the great Iranian people rights, the spokesman stressed.
Touching upon the remarks made by the Zionist regime of Israel’s prime minister about the possible agreement in Vienna, the spokesman said heads of the regime have always been after creating a psychological war and taking anti-diplomacy measures.
About guarantees in the talks, Khatibzadeh noted that the quick return of Iran’s programs is the most important guarantee the country has offered during the negotiations in Vienna, Austria.
Iran and the six world powers – US, UK, France, Russia and China plus Germany – reached a landmark nuclear agreement on July 14, 2015.
But, former US president Donald Trump exited the deal unilaterally on May 8, 2018, and imposed as he claimed the highest level of sanctions against Iran in November the same year.
Now, Iranian representatives and envoys from 4+1 have been negotiating for weeks to settle disagreements and reach a good agreement.
Iran says the US should lift the sanctions; then it will be allowed to return to the deal again.
