Russia Supports EU Proposal To Meet In Vienna
  • PublishedMay 17, 2018

Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov has announced on Wednesday that Russia supported a European Union proposal to hold a meeting on the Iran nuclear deal in Vienna next week.

According to the country’s media, the deal between Iran and six world powers lifted most international sanctions in 2016 in return for Tehran curbing its nuclear programme, under strict surveillance by the U.N. nuclear watchdog.

European powers this week vowed to shore up the deal after United States President Donald Trump announced Washington’s withdrawal.
