Iran, IAEA positive talks to continue
Adjust font size:

Deputy chief of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization Mohammad Saeedi Wednesday said positive talks between International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Iran will continue in the future, the official IRNA news agency reported.

Saeedi describes his talks with senior UN atomic watchdog official Olli Heinonen as "positive", saying "the two sides agreed to continue these negotiations."

Heinonen arrived in Tehran early Monday to follow up his previous talks with Iranian officials.

Ali Asghar Soltanieh, Iran's representative at the IAEA also participated in the three-day talks, but no further details was released about the talks.

Heinonen's previous talks with Iranian officials were held during his two-day visit in Iran on Aug. 7-8, which came after six major countries recently agreed to consider new sanctions against Iran in the wake of remarks by Western governments saying Iran failed to give a "clear positive response" to their latest offer of incentives.

Iranian officials said the talks were "constructive" and were "held in an atmosphere of mutual understanding."

On June 14, European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana handed the offer of incentives to the Iranian authorities on behalf of France, Britain, Russia, China, the United States and Germany during his visit to Tehran in a bid to persuade Iran to halt uranium enrichment.

Iran has also presented its own package of proposals, which is aimed to help resolve regional and international problems, including Iran's nuclear issue.
