Iranian media expressed disappointment that US secretary of State John Kerry and other P5+1 foreign ministers would not join the nuclear talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif.
Geneva__ Diplomats from six world powers met here in Geneva Monday ahead of two days nuclear talks with Iran.

Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif arrived here late Monday afternoon accompanied by members of his negotiating team as well as some 40 Iranian journalists. He is due to have dinner with European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton at 7:30pm local time at the residence of Iran's ambassador to the UN in Geneva.
Meantime, US Secretary of State John Kerry was flying back to Washington from London Monday, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
