Referring to the Vienna talks on revival of Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the British Foreign Secretary expressed optimism that there is a prospect of reaching an agreement in this regard and that it is in the interest of parties to find a solution to fully implementation of JCPOA as soon as possible.

Speaking at a meeting of the Defense and Foreign Relations Committee of the House of Lords on Tuesday, Dominic Raab added that opportunity of Vienna talks should be used optimally.

As one of parties involved in Iran’s nuclear talk, JCPOA, the United Kingdom is consulting with the US government to revive the agreement, and has personally established close ties with other European members of JCPOA.
