Iran’s FM calls for balanced deal in Vienna talks

The Iranian diplomat said Iran “loudly declare that if you want to address your concerns about Iran’s peaceful nuclear program, all sanctions should be lifted”, Xinhua news agency reported.

Iran will pursue negotiations in Vienna with good faith and seriousness with a view to reaching a “good” agreement, and it is expected that other parties will continue the talks with the same approach, he noted.
