Omani Foreign Minister Yusuf bin Alawi said the nuclear deal in Vienna brought a new culture of diplomacy to the world.

In today’s world, there is no chance for making mistakes, said the Omani diplomat stressing that respect for the two sides’ interests is needed to have global convergence.

Referring to Oman’s role as a mediator in negotiations between Iran and the six world powers, he said Muscat could make efforts to resume talks between the two parties to the talks thanks to its special relations with both sides.

Oman played an important role in the first round of the recent talks in order to build confidence between the two sides, he said.

He further said the Vienna deal can be used as an example for finding solutions to regional crises.

He also hoped the crises in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Palestine would be solved through talks among all parties involved and also through the establishment of mutual confidence.
