Diplomats Say Iran Nuclear Talks Reaching ‘Final Stage’
Radio Farda-Jan 29th 2022
The latest round of talks to save the Iran nuclear deal have neared a final stage, diplomats said, after weeks of intense diplomacy in Vienna.
Diplomats from Germany, France, and Britain, known collectively as the E3, together with Russia and China, have been meeting in the Austrian capital since last spring trying to bring Iran and the United States closer to a deal to restore the 2015 agreement.
The EU’s Enrique Mora, who is coordinating the talks, said on January 28 that participants will go back to their capitals for consultations before coming back next week.
“Political decisions are needed now,” he wrote on Twitter.
In a statement, the E3 said all sides know the talks are reaching “the final stage, which requires political decisions.”
“January has been the most intensive period of these talks to date,” they said.
Russia’s representative, Mikhail Ulyanov, who is often optimistic about the talks, said: “My instinct tells me that agreement will be reached soon after mid-February.”
