Iran has repeatedly announced its principled stance on the issue based on international law, underlined Nasser Kanaani.

The spokesman made the remarks during his weekly press conference in reaction to a statement issued by the Ministerial Council of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council, which claims only Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have the right to exploit the field, known as Al-Dorra in the two Arab states.

“We have emphasized the continuation of technical and legal talks with the Kuwaiti officials,” he pointed out.

Iran tries to create a positive and constructive atmosphere to develop its relations with neighbors, said Kanaani, adding raising such issues in one-sided statements is not acceptable at all.
