The Persian language spokesman for the US State Department Alan Eyre says there is still enough time for Iran and P5+1 group of world powers to reach an agreement in nuclear negotiations which will be satisfactory to all parties.
To delay making difficult decisions does not help, he told state-owned Voice of America (VOA) on Wednesday, 'On the contrary, as time passes, it will become harder to take difficult decisions.'
To a question on whether U.S. negotiating team has a plan on removal of anti-Iran sanctions, the spokesman refrained giving details and said, 'Nothing has been agreed unless there will be an agreement on everything.'
His comments were made as Iran and P5+1 group of world powers on Wednesday wrapped up the first day of the eighth round of negotiations in Vienna after six hours of discussions on a final comprehensive deal.
Iran's deputy foreign ministers Abbass Araqchi and Majid Takht-Ravanchi and EU deputy foreign policy chief, Helga Schmid, headed their respective delegations on drafting the appendixes.
Araqchi said one of the unsettled issues is the simultaneous lifting of sanctions in accordance with Iran's actions.
