A deal on Iran’s nuclear programme could be concluded if the US and other Western powers agree to remove all sanctions on Tehran, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Monday.
“If they want an agreement, sanctions must go. We believe all sanctions must be lifted,” Zarif said after a meeting with US Secretary of State John Kerry on the sidelines of the UN Human Rights Council session in Montreux.
The meetings of the political directors are also underway of the so-called P5+1 group-the UN Security Council permanent members plus Germany- and the Iraninan nuclear delegation which includes President Hassan Rouhani’s brother, Hossein Fereidoun, AEOI head, Ali Akbar Salehi, his deputy Kamalvandi and Deputy Foreign Minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi.
