Armenia swiftly welcomed late on Thursday a framework agreement to curb neighboring Iran's controversial nuclear program which was reached by the Islamic Republic and world powers during marathon negotiations in Switzerland.
"That will contribute to the strengthening of stability and cooperation in the region," Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said in a statement. "This serious progress in the process of solving the Iranian nuclear issue shows that even the most complex problems can be settled through negotiations."
The tentative agreement cleared the way for a comprehensive deal which Iran, the United States, the European Union, Russia and China aim to conclude by June 30. Such a deal would lead to a gradual lifting of crippling international sanctions imposed on Tehran because of what the West sees as Iranian efforts to develop nuclear weapons.
