President Barack Obama today asked Iran to seize the "historic opportunity" of reaching a deal with the world powers on its contested nuclear programme.

"America is pursuing a diplomatic resolution to the Iranian nuclear issue, as part of our commitment to stop the spread of nuclear weapons and pursue the peace and security of a world without them. This can only happen if Iran takes this historic opportunity," Obama said in his annual address at the General Debate of the UN General Assembly.
