    Amir-Abdollahian: Iran will not accept giving away ten concessions in exchange for one

Iran and Saudi Arabia will be holding talks in Baghdad, Iraq in the near future, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said Thursday.

Amir-Abdollahian noted, during a press conference with his Iraqi counterpart Fouad Hussein, that the position of some countries like France had not been constructive during the Vienna nuclear talks, adding that the E3 had not presented any proposals during the talks. The Foreign Minister also thanked China and Russia for their stances during the talks.

He stressed that Iran would not accept being given one concession while the other side is given ten.

Regarding talks with Saudi Arabia, the Iranian Foreign Minister said Iran was still awaiting convincing answers from Riyadh on its delay in allowing the Iranian ambassador to leave Yemen for treatment in Iran. He also clarified that Iran presented a number of proposals to Saudi Arabia during the last round of talks.

Both countries are prepared to exchange commissions between their embassies, he asserted, which would pave the way for their reopening.
