MOSCOW, November 12 (RIA Novosti) – Oman is ready to use all of its possibilities to help settle the dispute on Iran's nuclear program in a peaceful manner, Yusuf bin Alawi, Minister Responsible for Foreign Affairs of the Sultanate of Oman, has said.

"We want to continue our efforts until the achievement of the agreement," Yusuf said at a press conference Tuesday evening, as quoted by the IRNA news agency, adding that Oman thinks that "confrontation and misunderstandings should be replaced by friendship and cooperation".

Yusuf stressed that an agreement on Iran's nuclear issue is crucial in keeping the Middle East region far from confrontation.

Oman hosted the latest round of P5+1 nuclear talks on Iran on Tuesday. The talks, held in the city of Muscat, were also attended by EU envoy Catherine Ashton. The next round of talks is scheduled to take place in Vienna on November 18-24.

Iran's nuclear program has been a matter of concern for many countries with the West having accused Iran of attempting to build nuclear weapons under the guise of a civilian nuclear program, despite Tehran's claims that the program is of peaceful nature.

The United States and a broad coalition of governments have imposed sanctions on Iran over its controversial nuclear program, which Iran claims is of purely peaceful nature. Last January the United States agreed to provide limited sanctions relief if Iran froze its nuclear program. Since then, Iran has partially limited its uranium production.

In November 2013, during talks in Geneva, the P5+1 group, comprising Russia, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, China and Germany, agreed to reach a deal with the Tehran delegation guaranteeing the peaceful nature of the Iranian nuclear program by July 2014.

The deadline was later extended to November 24, 2014.
