Iran and Group 5+1 hold plenary session in Vienna

The representatives of Iran and six world powers (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) attended a plenary session of negotiations in Vienna as part of efforts to finalize the text of a comprehensive deal.

According to the head of the Russian delegation, the Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, the pace of talks between Iran and the P5+1 format countries has slowed down. "The period of time left before the deadline isn’t long, so we must step on the final stretch as soon as possible," he stressed.
