Iranian Foreign Minister for Political Affairs, Abbas Araghchi, wrote in a tweet on Sunday that in the face of US� sanctions and pressure, two important events are set to take place tomorrow that will greatly influence the level of Iran-EU relations.

He noted that the one of the events is the third round of Iran-EU high-level seminar on 'International Nuclear Cooperation� to be chaired by head of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI)�Ali Akbar Salehi�on the Iranian side, and the second event is the fourth round of Iran-EU high-level political talks to be chaired by Araghchi and Secretary General of the European External Action Service (EEAS) Helga Schmid.

This round of the seminar, slated for Nov. 26-27, is particularly notable for marking the first joint event between Iran and Europe on nuclear cooperation after the re-imposition of US� unilateral sanctions on Iran in the wake of Washington�s withdrawal from the landmark nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

The EU and Iran held a high-level seminar on 'International Nuclear Cooperation: Expectations and Responsibilities' in Brussels on 28 February and 1 March 2017.

The seminar was the result of a joint initiative of the European Commissioner for Energy and Climate Action Miguel Arias Ca�ete and Iranian Vice?President Ali Akbar Salehi.

The seminar was attended by a high?level delegation from Iran, including prominent parliamentarians, as well as senior officials from the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
