P5+1 FMs Hold Meeting in Attempt to Reach Nuclear Deal - Source

A source close to the negotiating process says the foreign ministers of the P5+1 are holding the coordination meeting in Vienna as they are trying to reach a comprehensive nuclear deal with Tehran.

VIENNA (Sputnik), Anastasia Levchenko, Daria Chernyshova — The foreign ministers of the P5+1 are holding the coordination meeting in Vienna as they are trying to reach a comprehensive nuclear deal with Tehran, a source close to the negotiating process told Sputnik early Tuesday.

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius wrote on his Twitter account that the "important ministerial meeting" takes place in the Palais Coburg hotel in the Austrian capital Vienna.

On Monday, the ministers held a number of meetings in different formats, including a coordination meeting of the sextet.

The announcement of the deal is widely expected on Tuesday morning, as several sources confirmed to Sputnik. However, there are reports that it could take a couple of days to strike the deal.

Iran and the P5+1 group of international negotiators, including the United Kingdom, Germany, China, France, Russia, and the United States are working on the final details of a comprehensive agreement on Tehran’s nuclear program.

The final accord was due to be signed on June 30, but the deadline has been repeatedly postponed.
