The P5+1 and Iran have achieved considerable progress in the latest round talks on Tehran's nuclear program, China's chief negotiator told journalists Thursday.

LAUSANNE (Sputnik) – Lausanne is holding the fresh round of negotiations between Iran and P5+1 group, comprising Russia, United States, the UK, China, France and Germany, on Tehran's disputed nuclear program.

"Talks have had important and considerable progress, but still differences remain," Wang Qun told the press.

The deadline to reach a final agreement that would guarantee the peaceful nature of the Iran's nuclear program is set for July 2014, after being repeatedly postponed.

The western countries believe Iran is trying to develop nuclear weapons. Tehran repeatedly rejected those claims, stating its uranium enrichment program is only for peaceful purposes. P5+1 and Iran have held numerous rounds of talks regarding the issue with little success.
