Iran's president Raisi: Nuclear talks must be result-oriented

Iran backs talks with six major powers that are result-oriented, Iranian hardline President Ebrahim Raisi said on Monday, as Tehran and six powers struggled to overcome snags in resumption of negotiations to revive a 2015 nuclear deal.

"We are serious about result-oriented negotiations ... the unjust US sanctions imposed on Iran must be lifted," Raisi told state TV.
