Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh says any new agreement apart from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is out of question.

Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh says the US administration's move to introduce new sanctions against Russia is a wrong move in a wrong path, which is completely rejected.

The Iranian president has reiterated that Iran will return to full compliance with the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), only after the United States removes all sanctions.

The Iranian foreign minister says sanctions and acts of sabotage will give the United States no leverage to force Iran into sitting at the negotiating table.

Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator Seyyed Abbas Araqchi says there are signs that the Americans are reviewing their positions and moving towards the removal of all anti-Iran sanctions.

Iran’s president says Tehran and the P4+1 group of countries can successfully conclude their negotiations over the 2015 nuclear deal in a short period of time if the US shows honesty and seriousness.

Iran's government spokesman has praised the stance adopted by a US official confirming Iran’s position with regards to the lifting of sanctions.

Iran says the United States will not be part of negotiations between Tehran and other signatories to the 2015 nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), until Washington lifts all sanctions against Iran.

Iran says it will hold no direct or indirect negotiations with the United States during the upcoming talks in Vienna, and will not accept any step-by-step removal of sanctions.

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Seyyed Abbas Araqchi has denied media reports about the US' participation in the upcoming meeting of the JCPOA Joint Commission in Vienna.
