    Armenian FM Hopes for Fruitful Talks between Iran, Powers


    TEHRAN (FNA)- Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian underlined
    his country's support for the nuclear talks between Tehran and the
    world powers, and expressed the hope that the negotiations would yield
    results.

    Nalbandian made the remarks in a joint press conference with his
    Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif in Yerevan on Monday.

    The 10th round of negotiations between Iran and the six world powers
    was held in Vienna from November 18 to 24, where the seven nations
    decided to extend the talks until July after they failed to strike an
    agreement.

    The latest round of the nuclear talks between the two sides was held
    at the level of deputy foreign ministers in Geneva, Switzerland, on
    January 18. The two sides decided to continue their talk early in
    February. Both Iran and the powers negotiators have underlined that
    cutting a final deal before the July 10 deadline is possible.

    Zarif arrived in Yerevan on Monday to confer on the latest
    developments in the region and explore new ways for the promotion of
    bilateral relations.

    Zarif's two-day visit to the country is taking place at the formal
    invitation of his Armenian counterpart.

    The Iranian top diplomat and his accompanying delegation, are
    scheduled to hold separate meetings with Armenian President Serzh
    Sargsyan, Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan and Parliament Speaker
    Galust Sahakyan.

    Iran and Armenia have taken major strides towards widening and
    deepening of their relations in recent years, particularly in the
    economic sector.

    In October, Abrahamyan, heading a high-ranking delegation, visited
    Iran to confer with senior officials of the country on ways to develop
    all-out ties.

    Abrahamyan held meetings with a number of high-ranking Iranian
    officials, including Zarif, during which they exchanged views on the
    growing trend of the development of bilateral relations in all areas,
    specially in economic, trade, infrastructures and tourism fields, and
    underscored the necessity for removing the existing obstacles.

    They also called for continued reciprocal visits by Iranian and
    Armenian officials to consult and exchange views on the bilateral
    relations and other issues of mutual interest.
