South Korea's Prime Minister says Seoul is willing to support talks among relevant parties regarding the Iran nuclear deal.
During his visit to Tehran, Chung Sye-kyun said in a joint press conference with Iran's Vice President Sunday that related countries should also cooperate to resolve the issue of frozen Iranian assets in South Korea.
Around 7 billion U.S. dollars of Iran's assets are said to be frozen in Korea due to U.S. sanctions after former President Trump withdrew from the 2015 deal.
Iran's Vice President urged Seoul to solve the issue as soon as possible.
They also agreed to expand cooperation on vaccine cooperation and medicine trade.
