Iranian delegation, headed by the country's deputy foreign ministers Majid Takht-Ravanchi and Abbas Araghchi, has arrived at the EU mission in Geneva for a plenary meeting of P5+1 and Iran over Tehran's nuclear program.

GENEVA (Sputnik) – Iranian delegation has arrived at the EU mission in Geneva for a plenary meeting of P5+1 and Iran over Tehran's contested nuclear program, a Sputnik correspondent reported Sunday.

Iranian delegation is headed by the country's deputy foreign ministers Majid Takht-Ravanchi and Abbas Araghchi.

The delegations of Russia, China, the United States, Britain, France and Germany have arrived at the EU mission in Geneva earlier Sunday.

The plenary meeting is likely to last for several hours into Monday night.

The UN Security Council and several countries imposed sanctions against Iran, suspecting it of developing nuclear weapons. Tehran rejected those claims, stating that its uranium enrichment program had only civilian implications.

Iran and the P5+1 group have held several rounds of talks on Tehran's nuclear program in recent years with limited results. The long-term agreement has to be reached by July 2015.
