Iran is seeking support from Russia for a potential deal with the US regarding its nuclear program, with talks scheduled in Rome. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi praised Russia's role in the 2015 nuclear deal and expressed hope for continued support. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that Russia is ready to mediate in the talks.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized the need for sanctions and expressed concern over Iran's compliance. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
