European Union Foreign Policy chief Federica Mogherini said she plans to discuss Iran�s nuclear program on Monday with the foreign ministers of Iran, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, Mohammad Javad Zarif, Philip Hammond, Laurent Fabius and Frank-Walter Steinmeier respectively.

BRUSSELS (Sputnik) � �At the end of the Foreign Affairs Council we will also have a meeting here, I will chair the meeting with Iran�s Foreign Minister Zarif and my three colleagues from Germany, France and UK to discuss the main issues open as we are entering the last stage of negotiations on the Iranian nuclear deal,� Mogherini told journalists.

Western states have long accused Iran of developing nuclear weapons under the guise of a civilian nuclear program, introducing several rounds of sanctions against the country.

Currently, Iran and the P5+1 group of international negotiators, comprising Russia, the United States, China, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, are in talks on a final comprehensive agreement aimed at ensuring the peaceful nature of Iranian nuclear activities. The agreement is expected to be reached by the June 30 deadline.
In April, the sides worked out a framework agreement on the matter.
