"We are committed to resolving this issue," Zarif told a Washington think-tank, but he argued the US was "infatuated" with sanctions and Congress was objecting to any deal "because they would have to lift the sanctions." "Iran has shown that we will live up to every agreement," Zarif argued at a discussion hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations, just hours before the Iranian delegation was to meet in New York with US counterparts for fresh talks. A senior State Department official confirmed the two sides would meet late Wednesday and again Thursday in New York "as part of the upcoming EU-led P5+1 round of comprehensive nuclear negotiations." The full plenary session will open on Friday and the talks are expected to last throughout next week on the sidelines of the annual UN General Assembly.
