Regarding the upcoming Vienna talks, the top Iranian diplomat expressed hope that the United States and the European parties would enter the negotiations with realistic approaches so that an agreement could be reached quickly. He stressed that the United States could not continue the failed Maximum Pressure Campaign as well as its economic terrorism while it continue its alleged call for negotiation and agreement.

Inviting his Iranian counterpart to visit Beijing, the Chinese foreign minister expressed hope that the third meeting of Afghanistan's neighbors which is going to be held this time in China could lead to the formation of a stable and inclusive government in Afghanistan with the active cooperation of its neighbors, including the Islamic Republic of Iran.
