Talks on reviving Iran's nuclear deal will resume soon in Vienna, Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian was quoted as saying on Wednesday at a meeting with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in Moscow.

Interfax news agency reported Amirabdollahian as saying Tehran had received "signals" that Washington - which abandoned the 2015 nuclear pact under the previous administration - was once again interested in implementing it.

Russia's foreign ministry said earlier on Wednesday Lavrov had discussed the issue of reviving the Iranian deal in a telephone call with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
