The Iranian Parliament (Majlis) speaker�says Tehran and its negotiating partners can reach a nuclear agreement if the P5+1 group of countries makes no excessive demands in the course of drafting the text of a final deal.

A final deal can be reached if the P5+1 adopts a rational approach, abstains from making excessive demands, and avoids new issues during the talks on drafting the final text of an agreement, Ali Larijani said.

The Iranian official made the remarks in a meeting with Chairman of the European Parliament�s Committee on Foreign Affairs Elmar Brok in Tehran on Saturday.

Negotiators from Iran and the P5+1 group of countries � the United States, Britain, France, China and�Russia plus�Germany � are seeking to finalize a comprehensive deal on Tehran�s nuclear program by July 30.

Iran and its negotiating partners have been working on the text of a final deal since they reached a mutual understanding on key parameters in a final deal in the Swiss city of Lausanne on April 2.

Bilateral relations

Elsewhere in his remarks, Larijani praised economic cooperation between Iran and European countries and said such cooperation could serve the mutual interests of both sides.

He also said that consultations between the Iranian and European parliaments could facilitate the further promotion of bilateral ties.

Brok, for his part, expressed European countries� willingness to promote trade ties with the Islamic Republic.

Touching on Iran�s nuclear program, the European lawmaker also hoped that the two sides can reach an agreement by the June 30 deadline.

He also warned against the growing threat of militant groups, including the Takfiri ISIL terrorists, to the region, and urged all countries to join hands to confront terrorism.
