Iran’s Foreign Minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, announced at a press conference on Tuesday that he “recommends” an extension of the deadline set for the world powers to reach an agreement with Iran regarding its nuclear program.
Zarif said, “We perhaps need some more time,” and added that representatives of the world powers “tend” to agree that more time is necessary. That being said, he expressed hope that all sides involved will succeed in reaching an agreement prior to the deadline, slated for this coming Sunday.
