BRUSSELS \u2014 European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton will host a meeting of senior officials from six major powers in Brussels on Tuesday to discuss how to advance nuclear talks with the Iranian regime, the EU said on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Representatives from the United States, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany will discuss \u201chow to move forward in the Iran nuclear file. We are keen to make concrete progress in the talks following the election of the new president,\u201d said Ashton’s spokesman, Michael Mann.<\/p>\n
Russia voiced concern last week that no progress had been made in organizing new six-power talks with the Iranian regime.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Western diplomats say the powers will have to wait for a new government to be formed in Iran before they can discuss a date for a new round of talks.<\/p>\n
The last high-level talks between the Iranian regime and the six powers were held in the Kazakh city of Almaty in April, but they failed to end the deadlock.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe put a very good offer on the table in Almaty. We are waiting for the Iranians to respond positively,\u201d an EU source said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
