Tehran, YJC. Italy’s representative to the EU Parliament says patience is the key to solving problems.
Barbara Matera, EU Parliament member in interview with Fars news
agency pointed to EU concerns with regard to Iran and the US.
"The EU financial crisis has been under the influence of the
United States economy in the recent years,” she stated, adding "It is important
to focus on objectives such as rabid rehabilitation and attempts to retake the
EU to the center of the global competition.”
Pointing to Italy-Iran relations she said "Compared to what
happened previously, Iran-Italy relations have improved recently. Currently business
cooperation is on and inside Iran there are some big, well-known Italian companies
operating.”
"Our Foreign Minister’s trip to Iran in
December showed that diplomatic relations are highly important and that attempts
are initiated to find the way to remove the obstacles that exist between the two
countries,” she maintained.
Matera added "I believe that to reach agreement on the
nuclear case during the negotiations, the primary thing to observe is patience.
It is important to keep in mind Iran’s readiness to limit the power to enrich
uranium. In return for that, the reduction of the imposed sanctions and the
continuation of the talks are another important step in order to improve
international relations.”
