The talks will be headed by Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araqchi and Secretary-General of France’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maurice Gourdault-Montagne.

The talks will be held within the framework of a Memorandum of Understanding signed by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani during his visit to France.
