Iran has agreed to resume talks in November with world powers over the nuclear deal, announced Iranian deputy foreign minister Ali Bagheri on Wednesday following a meeting with EU mediators in Brussels.

The resumption is pending the confirmation of the other parties - mainly the United States, which was the reason behind the severing of the JCPOA after it left the 2015 agreement under former President Donald Trump.

"We agree to start negotiations before the end of November. The exact date would be announced in the course of the next week," Ali Bagheri, who will also represent Tehran in the talks, wrote on Twitter. 

Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian had previously confirmed that talks with the P4+1 would be resumed "soon."

The talks aim to re-activate the JCPOA after the United States withdrew from the agreement in 2018, three years after Tehran and major powers reached the agreement. Trump's withdrawal was also accompanied by heavy sanctions on Iran, which led to irreparable damages during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The following administration expressed its readiness to resume the agreement, conditioning its return to Iran on 'fully complying' with the deal, although Tehran repeatedly called on the United States and other parties to fulfill their obligations under the JCPOA, even after Washington withdrew.

Iran had put the Vienna talks on hold awaiting elections and the transition of power.

The EU acts as a coordinator for the deal, which also involves Russia, China, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.
