Ulyanov's remarks came in reply to tweeter account of Russian Mission Vienna that wrote, "On July 1 Deputy Foreign Minister S.#Ryabkov met with his Iranian counterpart Deputy Foreign Minister @Bagheri_Kani in Moscow. The meeting was also attended by the Russian Permanent Representative of #Russia to the International Organizations in Vienna @Amb_Ulyanov."
Doha talks were held on Tuesday and Wednesday this week to discuss issues that remained from the Vienna talks.

"We are serious about reaching a good, strong, and lasting agreement, and if the United States is realistic, an agreement can be reached,” Amir-Abdollahian added.
