Iran has not received the United States’ official response to its last proposal on the revival of the 2015 nuclear deal, says foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani.

“Iran is waiting to receive the response from other parties, notably that of the American government,” he says during his weekly news conference in Tehran.

His remarks come after the United States last Thursday said Tehran’s latest response on reviving the 2015 accord was “not constructive.”

Kanaani says that Tehran had “never received a response… saying that its position was not constructive.” He characterized Iran’s response as “constructive, clear and legal.”

“Iran is trying to cancel sanctions to economically benefit the Iranian nation and this is one of its top priorities,” Kanaani says.
