Iran has started the latest round of nuclear talks by presenting a new plan on how to resolve the stand-off, the spokesman of EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton says.
Spokesman Michael Mann did not share the details of Iran’s power point presentation but says experts accompanying Ms Ashton and envoys of five UN veto powers and Germany would analyze it quickly.
“I hope it is really time now for tangible results,” Mr Mann says, pointing to a string of previous fruitless talks.
