Iran's top diplomat Hossein Amirabdollahian called on Western Powers on Tuesday to adopt a "constructive" approach for the revival of the 2015 nuclear pact.
Amirabdollahian said that Tehran would back the revival of the 2015 nuclear deal as long as his country's red lines are respected.
Speaking at the Baghdad conference in Jordan, Amirbdollahian also asked the other parties to the 2015 nuclear deal to be "realistic"
Amirabdollahian also added that other parties to the deal should take the "necessary political decision" to salvage the pact during his meeting with European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell in Jordan.
U.S. President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the pact in 2018 and reimposed U.S. sanctions on Iran. Talks to restore the nuclear accord have resumed but have been at a stalemate since September.
