EU denies talks with Iran in discussion

BRUSSELS - The European Union denied Iranian comments on Wednesday that negotiations were under way between Western powers and Tehran to restart talks over the OPEC producer's nuclear program.
"There are no negotiations under way on new talks," a spokesman for EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said. "We are still waiting for Iran to respond to the substantive proposals the High Representative (Ashton) made in her letter from October."
