Tehran (ISNA) - Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani emphasized that the Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly announced to the US side through different channels that it is ready to address the issue of prisoners separately from the 2015 nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Responding to a question regarding the United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the US Special Envoy for Iran Robert Malley's statements, Kanaani said, "Iran is ready to immediately implement the existing agreement with the US regarding the releasing prisoners and returning them to their families. The innocent Iranians are imprisoned in the United States and have fallen victims to the American judicial system on the false charge of violating the oppressive and illegal sanctions imposed by the United States".

"It is wondering that the American side is only performing propaganda shows against Iran instead of removing the obstacles in this regard," he added.
