Atmosphere of negotiations is serious/time passage determines outcome of talks: Ulyanov
Permanent Representative of Russia to International Organizations in Vienna, Mikhail Ivanovich Ulyanov, described the atmosphere of negotiations to lift the sanctions in Vienna as serious and said that time passage will determine the outcome of the talks.
Ulyanov told IRNA in Vienna before his meeting with Iran’s Bagheri Kani that "the situation is not completely clear to me, but apparently, all parties are reaching a consensus on the final text."
He added that reaching the finish line "may not be very easy, and time will tell if we succeed or not. But overall, the atmosphere of talks is serious".
