"Iran can leave negotiations if one side attempts to impose its will in the talks through means other than negotiating, we, too, will certainly be under no compunction to leave the negotiating table" ,- stated Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Seyyed Abbas Araqchi, Press TV Reports.
Such kind of statements of the senior Iranian negotiator was in fact in response to the recent remarks made by the US Secretary of State, John Kerry, according to which Washington has no inclination to extend the talks with Iran past the March 31 deadline.
However the same source reports that Seyyed Abbas Araqchi evaluated the atmosphere of the talks as being "constructive and useful." He also added that the further efforts of the negotiating parties should be directed to reaching the decision that will satisfy all the sides.
The next round of negotiations between Iran and the six are expected at the end of February. The other day the US State Secretary John Kerry arrived in Geneva to have a two-day, bilateral meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif.
