Talks between the European Union and Iran over nuclear issues have made progress in Germany, EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana told reporters Thursday after meeting with Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani. "But still, we have some issues, that have been put but have not been closed," Solana said, adding that the two sides "will keep in touch." Solana said he hoped to have further telephone contact with the Iranian side later this week, but he gave no specifics.
