Iranian VP hopes for new round of talks with six world powers
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
A senior Iranian official says Teheran holds out hope for a new round of talks with the six world powers despite lack of progress at their last meeting.
Iranian Vice President Gholam Reza Aghazadeh also says his country will no longer discuss with the International Atomic Energy Agency accusations that his country tried to make nuclear weapons.
Aghazadeh, who is also head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, spoke Thursday after meeting with IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei.
The meeting came five days after Iran and the six powers ended Geneva talks no closer to agreement on international demands that Teheran give up uranium enrichment.
