　　Xinhua News Agency, Tehran, June 27 (Reporter Gao Wencheng and Wang Shoubao) Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister and Chief Nuclear Negotiation Representative Araghi said on the 27th that in order to save the comprehensive agreement on Iran’s nuclear issue, Iran had made difficult decisions before and now needs other related matters. Fang made a "difficult decision."

　　On the same day, Araghi held a meeting with members of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the Iranian Parliament.

In an interview with the Iranian Islamic Parliament News Agency after the meeting, he said that when the United States withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement, Iran made a "major and difficult decision" and decided to stay in the Iran nuclear agreement.

　　He said that the parties involved in the Iranian nuclear agreement have held 6 rounds of talks on the issue of the United States and Iran's resumption of compliance, and have conducted "full discussions" on some outstanding issues. The negotiations are "almost in the final stage."

Now is the time for other parties to make "difficult decisions" based on the negotiations that have already taken place.

　　Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Khatibzad said on the 26th that Iran still believes that it is possible to reach a consensus in the negotiations, provided that the United States abandons the "failure legacy" of former US President Trump.

He also emphasized that Iran will not negotiate indefinitely.

　　In July 2015, Iran reached a comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue with the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany.

According to the agreement, Iran promised to limit its nuclear program and the international community lifted sanctions against Iran.

In May 2018, the US government unilaterally withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement, and subsequently restarted and added a series of sanctions against Iran.

Since May 2019, Iran has gradually suspended the implementation of certain provisions of the Iran nuclear agreement, but promised that the measures taken are "reversible."

The talks between the relevant parties to the Iranian nuclear agreement began on April 6 this year in Vienna, the capital of Austria, to discuss the issue of the United States and Iran resuming compliance.
