Tehran ready for good, strong deal through Vienna talks: FM

Foreign Minister has once again said Tehran is ready to clinch a good, strong agreement with other negotiating parties in the Vienna talks aimed at reviving the 2015 Iran deal.

According to Press TV, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian made the remarks in a telephone conversation with his Qatari counterpart, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, on Tuesday.

He stressed the need to pay attention to the interests of the Iranian nation and the country’s red lines in the course of the negotiations in the Austrian capital, saying, “The Islamic Republic is fully ready to achieve a good, strong, and lasting agreement.”

The top Qatari diplomat, for his part, appreciated Tehran’s constructive role in the Vienna talks and underlined the need for all parties to work towards a deal.

Earlier this month, the talks in Vienna, meant to resurrect the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), were paused for an undetermined period of time despite reports suggesting that they were in the “final stages.”

Iranian officials have always said the United States needs to remove all illegal sanctions against the Islamic Republic in a verifiable manner and offer guarantees that a new US administration will not breach the JCPOA again before it can rejoin the accord.
