TEHRAN -- All recent developments in Iran's nuclear sector are "reversible" and can be undone as soon as the nation's 2015 deal with world powers is revived, a senior government official said on Monday.

Foreign ministry spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh also told reporters in Tehran that talks with the International Atomic Energy Agency are continuing on a "technical level" and that Iran has no plans to stop such communication.
