>From Now – US State Department MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Tehran will refuse
to sign the final agreement on its nuclear program reached by the
P5+1 Group if sanctions against Iran are not fully lifted, Iranian
President Hassan Rouhani said Thursday.

“Iran will not sign the nuclear agreement with the largest powers
(P5+1) if all sanctions are not lifted,” Rouhani told Iran’s PressTV.

The deadline for the final comprehensive agreement between Iran and
the P5+1 group, comprising United States, France, the United Kingdom,
Russia, China and Germany, is set for June 30.

Last week, Tehran agreed to cut back its uranium enrichment and
decrease the number of centrifuges in the country as part of a
framework deal with the P5+1 group after the marathon talks in
Switzerland.

Under the deal, The United Sates, the European Union and the UN
Security Council agreed to lift their nuclear-related sanctions
following verification by the International Atomic Energy Agency of
Tehran’s implementation of the agreements.

Sanctions imposed on Iran, amid allegations that Tehran was trying
to hide from from the international community its development of a
nuclear weapon, have been in place for years, though Iran reiterated
its nuclear energy program is entirely peaceful.
