YEREVAN, February 17 — Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said
in Yerevan on Thursday that “concurrent observation of the nuclear
non-proliferation regime and Iran’s interests” was the only way to
solve the problem of Iran’s nuclear program.

“The concerted effort of Russia, France, Germany and Britain on the
international aspect of Iran’s nuclear program is directed at achieving
the consensus,” Lavrov went on to say. “Work in this direction is
based on these agreements,” the Russian foreign minister stressed.

Lavrov said that the process was developing in the right direction.
“Russia continues its contacts with America and Europe on this
subject. The only possible way is to develop a political dialogue with
the observation of Iran’s energy interests and the non-proliferation
regime,” the Russian foreign minister emphasized.
