MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Iran and the P5+1 powers are making progress on the issue of lifting sanctions against the Islamic Republic, but resolving the matter could still take some time, Russia’s permanent envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said Friday.

"This was one of the most important topics discussed today. I can say that there is an intensive dialogue and there are clear indications that the issue is starting to move forward. But these issues are definitely very complicated and this process will take some more time," Vladimir Voronkov told RIA Novosti.
