The deputy chief of staff of Iran’s armed forces, Gen. Massoud Jazayeri, said that Iran’s nuclear negotiators do not have the authority to negotiate on cooperation against the Islamic State group (IS) and can only negotiate on Iran’s nuclear program within a specific framework.
In an interview with Arabic news station Al-Alam, which is owned by Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, Jazayeri was asked about reports that US officials had addressed the issue of IS on the sidelines of the nuclear negotiations that are currently taking place in New York and whether the Iranian negotiators have the discretion to conduct talks on IS.
