Ali Khorram, the senior adviser to lead nuclear negotiator and Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, told Reformist Shargh Daily that the Geneva interim nuclear deal was "indebted" to the United States and after 35 years, it is time for Iran to address the storming of the US embassy in Tehran and taking of American hostages in 1979.
On the first interim nuclear deal signed in Geneva in November 2013, a breakthrough deal that ended nearly a decade of international tensions over Iran’s nuclear program, Khorram said, “In my opinion, the agreement in Geneva was more indebted to America’s amicable attitude,” using a word that is often translated into English as “friendly.”
