ISTANBUL, June 22 (NNN-Anadolu) -- Iran's delegation left Switzerland for Tehran on Monday after nearly 18 hours of intensive negotiations and consultations, Anadolu Ajansi reported, citing the Iranian state-run IRIB news.

Technical talks are expected to continue later this week on outstanding issues.
