Iran To Resolve Nuclear Dispute Through Diplomacy- Minister

Iran is committed to resolving its nuclear dispute with world powers through diplomacy, the Country’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian has said.

“We have always wanted a return of all parties to full compliance of the 2015 nuclear deal,” Amirabdollahian explained.

Indirect talks between Washington and Tehran to revive the nuclear agreement have stalled since last September.

Having failed to revive the pact, Tehran and Washington said on Thursday they had reached anunderstanding under which $6 billion in Iranian funds will be unfrozen from South Korea while five American nationals detained in Iran will be released.

The United States would also release some Iranians from U.S. prisons as part of the deal, Iran disclosed.
