Iran Says Vienna Agreement Draft Ready, Awaiting West’s Political Decisions

TEHRAN, Mar 1 (NNN-IRNA) – Iran said yesterday that, a draft of the final agreement in the Vienna talks, on the revival of a 2015 nuclear deal has been prepared, waiting for Western countries to make their political decisions on the three main remaining issues.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Saeed Khatibzadeh, made the remarks in an address to a weekly press conference, adding that, the draft was required to be scrutinised carefully.

On the likeliness of a failure to reach an agreement in Vienna, he said, over 98 percent of the deal’s draft, written and adjusted jointly, have been prepared, noting that, what is remaining are the issues that must be resolved.

In phone calls with foreign officials over the past days, “we attempted to clarify for the Western sides Iran’s red lines, the logic behind them, the way to resolve the remaining issues and Tehran’s positions,” he said.

“At present, we have arrived at a point where we presume that no ambiguity exists for the United States and the European states about the red lines. We definitely expect the other sides to refrain from prolonging the negotiations any further,” Khatibzadeh added.– NNN-IRNA
