A senior Russian diplomat says all participants in the sanctions removal talks in Vienna should avoid any measure that will complicate the "resumption and successful completion" of the negotiations.



Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia's Permanent Representative to International Organizations in Vienna, made the remarks in a post on his Twitter account on Saturday after US Treasury Department�s latest move to impose a fresh round of sanctions on Iranian natural and legal persons amid renewed push to resume talks on the removal of Washington's sanctions against Tehran.

"All participants in the #ViennaTalks should refrain from step which can complicate resumption and successful completion of negotiations on restoration of #JCPOA. It must go without saying," he tweeted.

On Friday, the US Treasury Department imposed a fresh round of sanctions on four individuals and two entities allegedly involved in promoting the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) programs of Iran�s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) and its Quds Force, despite Washington�s claims to be serious in rejoining the nuclear deal.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said on Friday that the US Treasury Department�s latest sanctions contradict�Washington�s claim of seeking to return to the nuclear deal of 2015, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and proves the White House is by no means reliable.
