Iran says it will hold nuclear talks in the coming days with the three European countries that initiated a censure resolution against it adopted by the UN’s atomic watchdog.
Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei says the deputy foreign ministers of Iran, France, Germany and the United Kingdom will meet on Friday to discuss “a range of regional and international issues and topics, including the issues of Palestine and Lebanon, as well as the nuclear issue,” without specifying a venue.
He describes the upcoming meeting as a continuation of talks held with the countries in September on the sidelines of the annual session of the UN General Assembly in New York.
On Thursday, the 35-nation board of governors of the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency adopted a resolution denouncing Iran for a lack of cooperation, after IAEA head Rafael Grossi returned from a trip to Tehran.
In response to the resolution, Iran announced it was launching a “series of new and advanced centrifuges,” while also vowing to continue its “technical and safeguards cooperation with the IAEA.”
