    Amir-Abdollahian: Dialogue with Saudi Arabia is positive and constructive

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said that the current talks in Vienna are aimed at lifting US unilateral sanctions on Iran.

In order to stop its remedial measures, Iran's demands the complete lifting of US sanctions, in addition to US guarantees that Washington will not withdraw from the deal.

“Lifting sanctions means lifting all forms of sanctions stipulated in the nuclear agreement, and the sanctions that Trump reimposed contradict the terms of the agreement,” Amir-Abdollahian said. As for the guarantees, he said Iran demands guarantees "that include not imposing any new sanctions, and not reimposing sanctions after lifting them under any pretext."

Practically speaking, this means that Iran would be able to export its oil and obtain revenues through its own banking system, he said, adding that progress is being made in the talks, and Iran is receiving good news from its delegation. However, what's important are the steps the US takes and not just its words.
