00:00Iran on Friday sought support from Russia over a possible deal with the Washington over
00:06Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program ahead of a second round of talks this weekend
00:11in Rome.
00:12Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi said he briefed his Russian counterpart Sergei
00:17Lavrov on the first round of talks in Oman last week and praised Russia's role in Iran's
00:222015 nuclear deal.
00:24This message is actually not only addressed to the Russian leader, Mr. Putin, but also
00:28message to the whole world that Iran considers Russia its main and strategic partner and
00:33consults it in important matters.
00:35Lavrov said Arachi met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday in talks that emphasize
00:40the unprecedented dynamic of the political dialogue and also on the nuclear deal.
00:46We are ready to help mediate and play any role that, from Iran's point of view, will be useful
00:52and that will be acceptable to the United States.
00:54We proceed from the fact that the only option for an agreement, as the Minister said, is
01:00an agreement exclusively on nuclear issues.
01:04The 2015 nuclear deal collapsed with Trump's unilateral withdrawal while Iran abandoned all
01:09limits on its nuclear program and enriches uranium to up to 60% purity near weapons grade levels
01:16of 90%.
01:17And this is the last year of the weekend.
