Iranian leadership insists on unfreezing part of the country's assets as a prerequisite for a possible deal with the US, calling this position a 'red line', while Washington proposes to postpone the issue. This is according to Iranian agencies Fars and Tasnim, citing sources. They say the decisive factor for any potential agreement is economic benefit for Iran. Also, lifting sanctions on oil, petrochemicals is another important point. Earlier, Marco Rubio said the world may hear 'good news' about US-Iran talks in the next few hours.
