Iran has said it is willing to resume the stalled international talks over its contentious nuclear programme, the EU said today.
Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, sent the EU’s foreign policy chief, the British peer Lady Ashton, a letter saying he was prepared to continue the talks, which halted a year ago, “in a place and on a date convenient to both sides” after 10 November.
