AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): In a telephone conversation with the UN Secretary General, the Iranian Foreign Minister stated that despite the failure of the US and EU in delivering their commitments, Iran has entered the Vienna talks trying to reach a good agreement on lifting the sanctions.
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian spoke by telephone with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on regional and international issues, including developments in Afghanistan and the lifting sanctions talks in Vienna.
Describing the characteristics of a good agreement, Amir Abdollahian added: "The opposing parties must return to their full obligations in the JCPOA; then, Iran will also stop its compensatory measures."
He further referred to the constructive talks between the President of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran and Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Tehran, and added: "Tehran will continue technical cooperation with the IAEA."
