U.S. Secretary of State Kerry continues talks with Iranian FM

Xinhua, February 23, 2015 Adjust font size:

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry continued talks with his Iranian counterpart Mohammad-Javad Zarif on Monday amid efforts to further narrow the remaining gaps for a solution to Tehran's long-disputed nuclear program.

According to Iranian state media Press TV, Iran's Foreign Minister Zarif and U.S. Secretary of State Kerry met for three hours at a hotel in Geneva on Monday after their two-hour-and-a-half-long talks on Sunday.

U.S. Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz and Iranian atomic energy head Ali Akbar Salehi, along with other senior officials from both sides, were also reportedly present at the talks.

Little details of the closed-door negotiations have been disclosed, while messages from both sides showed that the presence of Moniz and Salehi reflected that the current talks were very "technical". Endit
