MNA � Iran�s Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Abbas Araghchi has said that the JCPOA participants are planning to compensate for the US withdrawal, adding that they are trying to design operational solutions.

�Iran, in cooperation with the European Union, Russia and China, and other countries that are considered trading partners of Tehran, are developing solutions to keep the doors of cooperation open,� Abbas Araghchi said after meeting with Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi.
