Italian Deputy Foreign Minister Lapo Pistelli expressed hope on Saturday that a deal on Tehran’s nuclear program would be finalized, saying the removal of sanctions under the agreement would create economic opportunities.
“After reaching a deal, Iran will become an attractive market. We are waiting for it. Italy will have lots of economic opportunities in relation to all goods as our economy is diverse and based on production,” IRNA quoted him as saying on Saturday citing Italian news agency ANSA.
He also described the initial agreement reached between Iran and the major powers on April 2 as “positive”, saying the preliminary accord was “a victory for pragmatic diplomacy.”
