A senior member of the Iranian team of negotiators engaged in talks with world powers over Tehran's nuclear energy program appreciated the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei's support for the team, Al-Alam News Network reports.

 

Abbas Araqchi, also a deputy foreign minister, posted a photo of Imam Khamenei on his Instagram page captioned 'words fail to express gratitude'.

The top diplomat made a reference to Ayatollah Khamenei's Tuesday speech in which the Leader backed the team of negotiators and praised their efforts in the nuclear talks.

Speaking in a gathering of senior Iranian officials in Tehran on Tuesday evening, Ayatollah Khamenei praised the country's nuclear negotiators for their "trustworthiness, courage and piety".

"This team is making efforts in the face of a large number of negotiators of the other sides with national dignity, full vigilance and with the aim of untying the knot and advancing the country's affairs," the Leader said of the negotiators.
