Iran demands global N-disarmament

He made the remarks at a press conference following the second round of talks with the P5+1 group of – Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States plus Germany – in Istanbul.

The Iranian official added that both parties have agreed to continue nuclear cooperation based on the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
