Iran, P5+1 agree on principle issues: Rouhani

As for general questions, there is consensus between Iran and P5+1, yet details are yet to be agreed over.

Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani says there is consensus between the country and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany (P5+1) on principle issues.

Speaking at a gathering of cabinet members and parliamentarians at Iran’s Majlis (Parliament) on Tuesday, Rouhani said the two sides’ difference lay only in details.

“There is no difference between the two sides over whether a power plant should be constructed in Arak, or whether Iran should possess enrichment technology, or about the Fordow center and the continuation of Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities, or whether alleged military issues should be resolved; and there is difference only about details and the quantity of matters.”

“Today, no one says Iran should be eliminated from equations and developments, and everybody admits that Iran is not omissible. All countries have said that Iran should play its role in fighting terrorism and there is no doubt about this,” the Iranian president added.
