MOSCOW, August 7 (RIA Novosti) – A group of top officials from the United States and an Iranian delegation will hold nuclear talks on Thursday, Reuters reported citing the US State Department.
Deputy Secretary of State William Burns will lead the US delegation, according to the agency.
In mid-July, Tehran and P5+1 group — US, UK, France, Germany, Russia and China - failed to reach an agreement on Iranian nuclear program after six rounds of talks.
In November, the six world powers agreed on lifting international sanctions against Iran if the country gave assurances on the peaceful nature of its nuclear program. The parties should reach a final agreement by November 24, 2014.
