Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Friday that discussions in Vienna between Iran and global powers on reviving a 2015 nuclear deal are "quite near to a good and accessible agreement," according to the state news agency IRNA.

The statements were delivered by Hossein Amir Abdollahian upon his arrival in Germany for the 58th Munich Security Conference, where he also stated that Iran had already "placed its active proposals on the negotiating table." The Western parties must present their efforts and show genuine flexibility, as "it is they who, by their reaction to Iran's initiatives, will determine whether the talks will come to completion within a few days or weeks," according to Abdollahian.

"In the Vienna discussions, there are still a number of unresolved concerns," he added. The Iranian minister stated that after signing a possible agreement, talks should be undertaken to guarantee compliance to the nuclear deal's provisions, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

In May 2018, former US President Donald Trump withdrew the US from the JCPOA and reimposed sanctions on Iran, leading the latter to renounce some of its nuclear commitments a year later and resume its halted nuclear programs.
