An Iranian semi-official news agency says the foreign minister has set Nov. 15 as the likely date for the start of a new round of nuclear talks with world powers, reports the Hurriyet Daily News & Economic Review, citing The Associated Press (Tehran).
The report was carried Tuesday by Mehr news agency. It quotes Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki as saying the talks were “expected” to start Nov. 15.
Mottaki on Sunday suggested Turkey as the venue of the talks.
The talks would be between Iran and US, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany. The six nations suspect that Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program under the cover of a civil energy program.
Iran denies the charge.
