back in tehran mossadegh loved the idea of the whole thing being taken to the u.n.. he liked it so much that he decided he personally would fly to new york and present the iranian case. when he got too he got to new york he caused a media sensation and it was sort of an eccentric figure baldheaded with enormous arms and a very big nose. one of his american translator said that he makes jimmy durante look like an amputee.

his foreign minister, sergey lavrov said he hopes arms deliveries to tehran will be possible within the next five years if approved by the u.n. he has been involved in this whole process going back and forth between moscow and wherever the talks have been taking place pressing for a deal for sanctions to be lifted and that is because russia and iran are allies, good friends they share certain elements of foreign policy and we expect to see cooperation between the two sides increased. of course, if iran comes on to the energy market, that could be competition for russia, but for now at least, i think here in russia, there is relief that this deal has finally been done. >> iran's president said the lifting of the sanctions would have a huge impact on ordinary iranians. this issue saying that iran is at the stage of developing mass destruction weapons from the other side, from the developing, it was important for our country, for the research and development and while this issue was considered as a dignity for our nation and people and from the economic point of view is that those who sanc
