TEHRAN, March 7 (Xinhuanet) -- Iran on Tuesday accused the United States of sabotaging the efforts of Iran and other parties to reach an agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue, the official IRNA news agency reported.

"Whenever the Americans feel there may be any chance for an agreement between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Russia or other countries, they try to destroy it," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hamid-Reza Asefi was quoted as saying.
