Iran's authorities confirmed on Monday that progress had been made on negotiations regarding the 2015 nuclear deal. However, "key issues" are still unresolved, and the United States still has to define a position on the matter.

Officials from Iran, Russia, and China met in Vienna on Monday to discuss the agreement, an unprecedented understanding from the Obama-era torn apart by Donald Trump. U.S. President Joe Biden wants to return to the deal by imposing conditions on Iran first.
"The meeting was held on the sidelines of a new round of talks between Iran and the G4+1 – Britain, France, Russia, China, and Germany – to explore ways for reviving the multinational accord," the Iran government reported via Twitter.
On the other hand, Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said during a press conference that the U.S. "has to decide once and for all whether it wants to continue the legacy of the previous administration."
