Russian Deputy FM Calls on G5+1 to Resume nuclear Talks with Iran
Ryabkov, also Russia’s top nuclear negotiator, told Interfax news agency that the two sides should show more flexibility for holding the next round of talks.
‘I support this issue that the time and venue of the next round of talks between Iran and the Group 5+1 should be determined sooner,’ the Russian diplomat said.
He noted that the European Union’s foreign policy commission representing the Group5+1 will attend the next meeting between Iran and the West.
Last week, Iran’s top negotiator in talks with the world powers Saeed Jalili said Tehran and the Group 5+1 would resume talks later this month, although the place and date for the negotiations have not been finalized.
Jalili told reporters in New Delhi that Tehran has agreed to a new round of talks this month.
‘We have accepted that these talks should be held in January … but till now the details have not been finalized,’ he said.
The last round of talks between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany was held in Moscow in June.
