Iran and P5+1 (China, France, Germany, Russia, United Kingdom and United States) negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program have been continuing for many years, dating back to 2006. The more serious and perhaps the most promising stage of these talks began in February 2013, in Almaty, about 4 months before the election of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. The negotiations are currently guided by the leadership of Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif - Iran Chief Negotiator.
