TEHRAN (FNA)- Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan described Iran as an important regional country, and expressed his satisfaction with the newly signed nuclear deal between Iran and the six major world powers in Geneva late in November."Iran is an important country for Armenia. That is why we of course view positively the peaceful resolution of issues between Iran, the EU and the US," Sargsyan told a news conference following talks with the Russian president on Monday.
He added that the Geneva deal is "an important step promoting stability and security at the regional and global levels".
On November 24, Iran and the five permanent United Nations Security Council members- the US, Russia, France, China, and Britain- plus Germany sealed a six-month accord to lay the groundwork for the full resolution of the Wests decade-old dispute with Iran over its nuclear energy program.
In exchange for Tehrans confidence-building bid to limit certain aspects of its nuclear activities, the Sextet of world powers agreed to lift some of the existing sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
