Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Iran’s missile program has never been discussed in the talks between Tehran and the P5+1 group, and is not part of the Geneva interim deal, IRNA reported.

Speaking with Russian TV network "Russia Today" on Wednesday, Lavrov said that Iran's missile program has never been an issue in the framework of Iran and Group 5+1 negotiation on nuclear program.

“The deal was very blunt. But as the deal started to be implemented the Americans began to load it with new demands,” Lavrov said.

The Russian diplomat said that every time a deal is signed, “the Americans start to put the blame for any delay on others or, even worse, they start to throw in new demands which absolutely contradict the reached consensus.”
