LONDON: Negotiation with Iran on a nuclear deal will be very strict, France’s President Emmanuel Macron said in comments to Al Arabiya on Friday.

Speaking to the news channel, the president said that Saudi Arabia must be included in any negotiations on an agreement with Iran.

Macron added that the time remaining to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon was very short.

The French president also said the mistake of 2015’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), when regional powers were excluded from the agreement with Tehran, should be avoided.

In a wide-ranging interview, Macron also said Lebanon’s regime was in trouble due to corruption and intimidation and that he would pay the country a third visit after checking “fundamental issues.”
