Salehi, who made the remarks on Saturday, gave an upbeat report about the future of the JCPOA struck between Iran and the six world powers (the US, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany) on July 14 and said that the sanctions will be terminated officially but it will take one or two months that termination of sanctions will become operational.
Referring to a statement issued by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Thursday which confirmed Iran's cooperation with the UN atomic agency, Salehi said that it was a major step to clear ambiguities in different areas.
He expressed hope that the final assessment of the IAEA Board of Governors on December 15 would lead to implementation of the JCPOA.
On Friday, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif announced that the JCPOA will be adopted officially on Monday, October 19.
"Adoption day of the endorsed agreement depends on many features such as the time of approval by Guardians Council," Zarif said, "Expert works are being carried out to ensure rights of the nation."
In view of the approval of JCPOA by the Iranian Parliament, he elaborated that the administration is concerned with public rights more than other things and efforts are underway to examine the details more carefully so that the issues will be carried out in the best manner.
In relevant remarks last Wednesday, Salehi announced that Monday will most likely be the official day for declaring adoption of the JCPOA.
An Iranian delegation is due to depart for Vienna and if all things will be on the right track, in a very strong possibility, Monday will be the day when the JCOPA will be ratified by the European Union, Salehi said, adding that ratification of the JCPOA means that both sides have officially accepted it and will declare their approval.
In his earlier remarks, he told reporters that immediately after ratification of the JCPOA, the European Union is due to officially announce termination of sanctions against Iran and at the same time the US president will terminate some sanctions and suspend remaining sanctions against Iran.
The Nuclear Deal includes several stages, including its early attainment by the delegations in Vienna in July, its following approval in a UN Security Council resolution, adoption and implementation.
The first two steps were taken in July and October 19 is the date that has been mentioned in the deal as adoption day.
The exact time of implementation of the JCPOA will be specified in due time and this depends on Iran to carry out its commitments to make changes in Nataz and Fordo which are to be accomplished based on a 45 to 60-day of Roadmap, Salehi said.
In relevant remarks, Salehi announced that the nuclear agreement between Tehran and the world powers would be fully implemented by the end of 2015.
"Our measures on the ground will take a maximum one and a half to two months and we can say that we will witness full implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)" by the end of the current year, Salehi said.
Referring to the measures to be taken by the world powers after the declaration of the adoption of the JCPOA, he said that the EU will officially announce the termination of sanctions against Iran and the US president will also issue a statement on the removal or suspension of embargo after the country will take its executive measures.
His remarks came after the Iranian parliament approved the details of a disputed bill on implementing the JCPOA agreed between Tehran and the world powers on July 14.
The generalities of the bill were approved in a last Sunday session, while its details were passed by the legislature last Wednesday.
Based on the details of the bill, no government in Iran is allowed to produce and use nuclear weapons according to a fatwa (religious decree) issued by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei and the government is required to pursue the global nuclear disarmament policies, specially in the Middle-East and about the Zionist regime.
Stressing that the JCPOA is based on mutual cooperation and respect, the bill emphasizes that any pressures and threats under any pretexts will lead to a revision of Iran's cooperation, of course in accordance with the final verdict of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC).
It also underlines that redesigning of Arak heavy water reactor, and if necessary, exchanging enriched uranium stockpiles should be carried out after signing final contracts and certainty of their implementation.
Also, the government is required to monitor any non-commitment of the opposite party to the deal in implementing the contents of the JCPOA, specially effective removal of sanctions or its revival of the removed embargos, and take necessary reciprocal measures to restore the Iranian nation's rights.
On the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)'s supervision of Iran's nuclear activities, the government is required to fully keep secret the classified information in the military and security fields and isnt allowed to give access to the military centers and individuals under the pretext of the JCPOA unless the necessary permission is given by Iran's SNSC.
While the bill necessitates commercialization of Iran's nuclear program, specially in Research and Development (R&D) and enrichment fields, within the framework of long-term plans, it also requires the government and the Armed Forces to safeguard the national security and interests, support its allies in war against terrorism and take the necessary measures to reinvigorate the country's defensive capabilities in all offensive and defensive fields.
The government and other bodies are also required to prevent the US and other foreign states' influence and misuse of opportunities in Iran after the implementation of the JCPOA.
The bill also requires the government to use the released funds for financing the resistance economy and doing the necessary investments with a priority given to the private sector and strengthening the national development fund.
The foreign ministry is required to report the trend of the implementation of the JCPOA to the parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission every three months and the Commission is required to report the JCPOA's implementation process to the parliament members every six months.
Iran and the six world powers held several rounds of talks in Geneva, Lausanne and Vienna before striking a final agreement in Vienna on July 14 to end a 13-year-old nuclear standoff.
After the agreement, the UN Security Council unanimously endorsed a draft resolution turning into international law the JCPOA reached between Iran and the 5+1 group of countries over the Islamic Republics nuclear program.
On September 22, Zarif called on the G5+1 to fulfill their commitments concerning the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
"How to implement the JCPOA is of utmost importance; the time is ripe for the six world powers, specially those who have imposed unjust sanctions against Iran to take practical measures to bring about a fundamental and tangible change in their approach towards Iran based on UN resolution 2231, which turned the JCPOA into an official document," Zarif said upon his arrival in New York to attend the UN General Assembly meeting.
