Iran Prepared For All Scenarios In Nuclear Talks: Negotiator
VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran is prepared for "all scenarios" in talks with world powers about curbing its nuclear programme in exchange for sanctions relief, its top nuclear negotiator said on Friday when asked what would happen if no final deal was reached by July.
Diplomats have been working in Vienna this week to iron out details of a deal without announcing any breakthrough ahead of a self-imposed June 30 deadline. The current talks, led by U.S. Under Secretary of State Wendy Sherman, concluded on Friday, a diplomatic source said.
"Even if I'm optimistic, that doesn't mean that any deal is acceptable. All parties want a good deal, and for Iran it's only a good deal if our legitimate rights are respected and sanctions are finished," top negotiator and Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi told Austrian news agency APA.
"We have thought of all possibilities and, accordingly, are prepared for all scenarios," he said.
