Tehran: Iran said its latest round of talks with the UN nuclear watchdog to resolve issues about its disputed atomic work were a positive step, reports said on Thursday.
Experts from the two sides started three days of talks on Monday under a deal reached in August between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Iran to remove concerns about the country's nuclear work, which the West says is a cover to build bombs. Iran says it seeks only nuclear power.
Ali Asghar Soltanieh, Iran's envoy to the IAEA, said, "Talks were held in a completely constructive atmosphere and this is another positive step by Iran ... to resolve the remaining issues."
Soltanieh said the result of talks would be announced by the IAEA after "it finishes all the necessary evaluations."
