Lausanne, March 27, IRNA – Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said all diplomats talk about Yemen these days but Iran–US negotiations are confined to nuclear issues.


Zarif was talking to reporters who asked him if he had talked about Yemen with Secretary Kerry. Zarif and Kerry started a new round of talks on Friday morning. He talked to reporters after the meeting's adjournment.

To a question whether the negotiations end on Sunday or will be extended until Tuesday, Zarif said they could finish or extend.

To another question about the atmosphere of the talks, the minister said the negotiations have always been difficult.

On Yemen, Zarif said it is a tragedy that people are being killed in a war which has no use for anyone.
