Negotiators seek progress at Iran nuclear talks
Diplomats from the P5+1 and Iran aim to make headway during the next round of nuclear talks; however, Zarif has said that if a deal is not reached during the next meeting 'it’s not a disaster'.
Geneva__ Negotiators from Iran and six world powers said they were looking to make progress towards a nuclear deal at a new round of high-level talks due to get underway here Thursday.
"We hope to make concrete progress in the upcoming round," Michael Mann, spokesperson for European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, said here Wednesday.
"The nuclear talks are complex and have entered a serious phase," Mann said. Both sides "have agreed to keep the talks confidential in order to focus on the substance."
“I believe there is a lot of work to be done," Iran Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif told France 24 during a visit to Paris Tuesday. "We have made some progress, but there is a great deal of mistrust in Iran concerning the attitude, behavior and approach of some members of the P5+1."
