Deputy Foreign Minister of Iran: The Iranian nuclear negotiations will continue in Vienna on the 9th

Tehran, 7 Dec (Xinhua) -- Iran's deputy foreign minister and chief negotiator on the Iranian nuclear issue, Bagheri, said on 7 December that talks between the parties to the JCPOA will continue on 9 December in Vienna, the capital of Austria.

In an interview with Iranian state television on the same day, Bagheri confirmed that the Iranian nuclear negotiations will continue in Vienna on the 9th. He said that Iran has put forward "very useful and constructive proposals" on the two issues of lifting sanctions against Iran and nuclear activities, which will effectively promote the negotiation process. It is hoped that Western countries will also take practical actions to promote the continuation of negotiations "faster".

Iranian Foreign Minister Abdullahyan said on social media on the 6th that Iran has the sincerity to reach a good comprehensive agreement and let the Iranian people feel tangible results.

In July 2015, Iran reached a nuclear deal with the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China and Germany. In May 2018, the US government unilaterally withdrew from the Iranian nuclear agreement, and then restarted and added a series of sanctions against Iran. Since May 2019, Iran has gradually suspended the implementation of some of the terms of the JCPOA, but promised that the measures taken were "reversible".

Talks between the parties to the JCPOA began in Vienna in April this year to discuss the resumption of implementation by the United States and Iran. Due to the serious differences between the United States and Iran and the change of leadership of the Iranian government, the talks were suspended after 6 rounds. A new round of talks, which took place in Vienna on 29 November, was suspended on 3 March.
