Tehran, YJC. Iranian deiplomat says that reaching a final agreement in the nuclear talks between Tehran and the world powers is dependent upon the latter's decision to withdraw their sanctions against Tehran.

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Europe and North America Majid Takht Ravanchi said in a meeting with Political Director of the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Wegger Christian Strommen in Tehran on Monday "If the other side draws back from its previous thoughts and stop making an instrumental application of the sanctions, we will be able to reach a comprehensive agreement at the earliest,"

He also noted the necessity for the development of economic and trade cooperation between Iran and Norway, and said oil, gas, petrochemicals, energy, fishery and environment are good grounds for the expansion of bilateral ties and mutual cooperation.

Strommen, in return, asserted that there are abundant capacities for cooperation between the Islamic republic and his country.

"Energy and maritime sectors, as well as fishery and environmental issues, are among the fit areas for cooperation,” he added.
