TEHRAN, Dec 4 (NNN-IRNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir-Aabdollahian, held a phone conversation with the EU foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, on issues of mutual concerns, Iran’s Foreign Ministry said, yesterday.
During the conversation, Amir-Aabdollahian thanked the EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, for his role on the path of dialogue and interaction, the ministry said on its website.
He, meanwhile, lodged criticism against the “diplomatically-impolite rhetoric” of one or two European ministers, saying, they were under the influence of wrong information, which could do damage to the bloc’s strategic goals.
The top Iranian diplomat urged Borrell to play his important role, in preventing the bloc from making “unconstructive” moves in bilateral relations, according to the ministry.
The two sides also discussed latest developments of the negotiations for reviving the Iranian 2015 nuclear deal, and cooperation between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency.
For his part, Borrell underscored his efforts to facilitate an agreement among all sides.
