Iran, E3 agreed to continue diplomatic talks
"We discussed and took stock of recent bilateral, regional and international developments, particularly nuclear and sanctions-lifting issues," he added.
"We are firmly committed to pursuing the interests of our people, and our preference is the path of dialogue and engagement," he noted.
"It was agreed to continue diplomatic dialogue in near future," he stated.
The meeting of the deputy foreign Ministers of Iran, France, Germany, and the UK was held on Friday to discuss bilateral, regional, and international issues.
The JCPOA was signed in 2015 between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany. Former US President Donald Trump illegally pulled out of the deal in 2018 while the current US President, Joe Biden, has signaled that he is ready to resurrect the agreement.
Russia, the UK, Germany, China, the US, and France have been in talks with Iran since April 2021 to reinstate the deal.
The talks to salvage the JCPOA kicked off in the Austrian capital of Vienna in April 2021, with the intention of examining Washington’s seriousness in rejoining the deal and removing anti-Iran sanctions.
