As July 20 deadline for reaching a final nuclear agreements nears, the representatives of Iran and P5+1 group has different views on the success of their nuclear talks.

Iranian Foreign Minister has said it is hard to predict the outcome of the ongoing nuclear negotiations due to the complexity of the agenda.

"Given the complexity and consistency of various subjects that should be agreed upon in order to reach a comprehensive agreement, it is really difficult to predict the result of the talks," Mohammad Javad Zarif wrote on his Facebook page on July 3, Press TV reported.

Zarif said the Iranian nuclear team would spare no effort to achieve a "logical and stable solution" to the West's decade-old dispute with Iran over the country's nuclear energy program.

The comments by the Iranian foreign minister come as Iran and its negotiating sides officially kicked off the sixth round of nuclear talks in Vienna on July 2 in an effort to work out a permanent nuclear deal over Iran's peaceful nuclear activities.

Meanwhile, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said much work should be done to seal the final deal.

He noted, however, sides' joint efforts aimed at making a compromises can pave the way for working out the final document till July 20 deadline.

Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif has described the current round of talks as a unique opportunity to make history.

On July 2, Zarif held a trilateral meeting with EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns, which followed his bilateral meeting with Ashton. Zarif also held separate talks with Chinese and Russian delegations.

On the same day, the Iranian minister reaffirmed that Tehran would not compromise on its nuclear rights in the talks, stressing that Tehran is prepared to take solid steps to guarantee that its nuclear program is solely used for peaceful purposes.

Besides, Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Abbas Araqchi, who is also the country's top nuclear negotiator, said Tehran and P5+1 group could reach a comprehensive deal if "the Iranian nation's nuclear rights are consolidated and respected."

P5+1 and Iran reached an interim pact on last November under which Iran won some relief from economic sanctions in return for reining in some of its nuclear activities.

Their goal is to reach a comprehensive nuclear agreement that would lay to rest Western concerns about the Iranian program and comprehensively ease sanctions on Tehran by July 20.

Iran and the P5+1 wrapped up their latest round of talks over Tehran's nuclear energy program in Vienna on June 20.
