    Baqeri Kani said that Iran will not back down from its demands.

Iran's top negotiator in the Vienna negotiations and the Iranian Foreign Ministry's assistant in international affairs,  Ali Baqeri Kani, affirmed Tehran's explicit position on the need to abolish the US embargo on the Iranian people, saying, "We will not back down from our demands."

In a statement to the Italian news agency ANSA, Baqeri Kani said that Iran will not back down from its demands to reactivate the 2015 nuclear agreement and to abolish the US embargo on its people.

He added that the United States of America must take the first step in returning to the agreement, after withdrawing from it in 2018.

Baqeri Kani reminded that the proposals presented by Tehran to the 1 + 4 group in the Vienna negotiations are "documented and logical" and can serve as a basis for negotiations.

Iran's top negotiator affirmed that his country believes in the negotiations and is "optimistic" about the possible results, considering that the unconstructive behaviour by some parties in relation to the nuclear agreement in the past and the repeated violations of their commitments require them not to show goodwill.

A high-ranking official in the Iranian Foreign Ministry saw earlier in the day that "in view of the blocked roads faced by previous rounds (in Vienna), it was clear that the seventh round will not provide the final outcome of the talks."

Iran is ready to continue talks

The Iranian official said that the new delegation presented its views to the 4+1 group of countries in writing and repeatedly voiced its readiness even during the JCPOA Joint Commission meeting to continue the talks.

Before returning to Tehran, the top Iranian negotiator announced his country's readiness to suspend the compensatory measures if the opposite party cancelled its measures that violated the nuclear agreement. 

It is noteworthy that talks on reviving the nuclear agreement were suspended until next week, and delegations returned to capitals to consult with the references.

Baqeri Kani commented on the matter explaining that "since the opposite side needed to consult with their capitals to provide a documented and reasonable response to these proposals, it suggested that the talks be suspended for a few days."
