TEHRAN, September 17 -Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says the landmark nuclear deal reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries is in the interests of the regional and global peace and stability.

Rouhani heads to New York for 'very important' talksTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Rouhani made the remarks in Tehran on Sunday, before leaving for New York to attend the 72th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

“Today, there is a consensus in the world that the JCPOA benefits security, stability and development in the region and the world,” he said, referring to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action as the nuclear accord is officially called.

“The opponents of the JCPOA are restricted to two or three countries, including some in the US, who feel cheated. They think a feast has been set out but they are deprived of going to the table and having something," Rouhani said.

"This is while they can also choose the right path, enter the room and go to the table; that's fine with us," the president said, using an uncharacteristically figurative language.

Rouhani said his planned meetings on JCPOA in New York are "very important," adding there is need for clarifications which have to be made about the nuclear accord.

Apart from the JCPOA, he will also talk about bilateral ties with world countries, regional issues as well as international developments including the ongoing crisis in Myanmar.
