PRAGUE (AP) – Iran’s foreign minister visited the Czech capital of Prague to talk business Friday, including the development of a nuclear program after the sanctions against his country were lifted.
Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s visit comes just six months after the head of Iran’s nuclear program met Czech leaders in May to discuss developing bilateral nuclear cooperation.
Iran is seeking help from European nations to improve its civilian nuclear program. The Czechs heavily rely on nuclear energy and plan to build more reactors.
Zarif and Czech counterpart Lubomir Zaoralek gave no details after their meeting.
“It’s a promising field,” Zaoralek said about the nuclear cooperation. “There’s an interest on both sides to cooperate.”
