German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Saturday there was no progress in sight for the nuclear talks with Iran, and stressed that time was running out.
"It has shown in the last days that we do not have any progress... due to the offer of the Iranian government, negotiations have been thrown back six months," Baerbock told reporters on the sidelines of a G7 meeting in Liverpool, England.
"Time is running out."
The G7 gathering is taking place as negotiators meet in Vienna to try to revive the ailing international deal that seeks to limit Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
The US has said that the Vienna talks are the last chance for Iran to sign up again to the deal, which was meant to rein in Tehran's nuclear program in return for loosened economic sanctions. It faltered after then-President Donald Trump pulled the US out of the agreement in 2018 and Iran began ramping up its uranium enrichment.
