Tehran: Iran on Sunday faced a two-week deadline to give a final answer to world powers hoping to end the row over Iran's nuclear programme.
EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said Saturday's talks in Geneva were "constructive" but Iran had still not given a final response.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad described the talks as a "step forward" in the nuclear standoff.
Solana presented Iran with an incentives package from world powers last month and is waiting for a decision from Iran on an initial deal to start pre-negotiations.
The incentives include a promise from world powers not to impose further UN Security Council resolutions against Iran if it stops uranium enrichment.
"We have not got an answer to the most important issue... we are looking forward to an answer to these questions in a couple of weeks," said Solana.
Iranian officials have repeatedly said they have no intention of freezing enrichment—the key demand of world powers for ending the crisis.
