The spokesperson of the government of Iran, Ali Rabiei.
The spokesperson of the government of Iran, Ali Rabiei, stated that the decision to reach an agreement has nothing to do with the Iranian election result, saying that the negotiations are taking place following a decision by the higher institutions and that they have agreed on almost all basic differences.
Regarding the nuclear talks, Rabiei said: "We have now reached an unambiguous text in the Vienna negotiations. The only thing left is a political decision by all parties, and it is not off the table that we are about to enter the last stage."
"The government has committed itself to continuing these negotiations based on providing maximum national interests," the Iranian government spokesman said. "If the United States returns to its commitments, the negotiators will inform the higher authorities of the situation for a decision and will not wait for the next administration."
Regarding the Iranian elections, Rabiei saw that holding these elections and the people's turnout was a great rejection of the imposed sanctions, adding, "Those who imposed the sanctions, those who call for the imposition of sanctions, and those who incited absentation have failed, and their masks have fallen."
The Joint Commission of JCPOA held Sunday a meeting in Vienna in order to reach a final version of the ongoing consultations within the sixth round of negotiations, which began Saturday.
Before the meeting, the Iranian political deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Abbas Araghchi, stated that Iran is closer than ever to reaching an agreement in the Vienna negotiations, pointing out that filling the void to reach an agreement is not an easy matter and that decisions need to be taken in the capitals of the participating countries.
