Tehran, April 6, IRNA - President Hassan Rouhani stressed continuation of talks in order to reach the final nuclear deal with G5+1.




Speaking at a cabinet session on Sunday evening, Rouhani urged the cabinet and the nuclear negotiators to continue efforts to reach the final nuclear agreement.

He voiced hope for success of future talks with G5+1 in a way that guarantee the national interests and boost the country's authority.

President urged national unity among various political factions in order to protect the achievements in all fields including the peaceful use of nuclear energy.

Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali-Akbar Salehi briefed the cabinet and the president at the meeting on latest developments in nuclear talks with G5+1 in Lausanne.

Iran and Group 5+1 (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany) started their new round of talks in Lausanne, Switzerland, last week to narrow their differences over Tehran's nuclear energy program ahead of a July 1 deadline.

After nine days of hard work, the seven nations reached an understanding which laid the ground for them to start drafting the final nuclear deal.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on April 2 that according to the agreement reached between Iran and the six world powers, all the US, EU and UN Security Council sanctions against Iran will be lifted under the final deal.

'Our decision today that will be the agreed base for the final text of the Joint Plan of Action (the final deal) is of vital importance,' Zarif said reading out a joint statement at a press conference with EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini in Lausanne, Switzerland, on Thursday.

'Now, we can start drafting the final agreement and its annexations by relying on the solutions found in the last few days,' he said after eight days of marathon talks with negotiators from the six world powers.
