UNITED NATIONS: Iran's new foreign minister will join nuclear talks with his US counterpart and five other world powers later this week, the latest sign that long-standing tensions with the West might be easing.
The talks will be the highest level contacts between the US and Iran in six years.
European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton told reporters of the new round of talks after she met Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif at the United Nations on Monday, a day before the opening of the UN General Assembly. She said the nuclear talks would resume on Thursday on the sidelines of the General Assembly and US officials said secretary of state John Kerry would participate.
"We had a good and constructive discussion," Ashton said of her half-hour meeting with Zarif. "We didn't talk about the details of what we would do. The purpose of this meeting was to establish how we would go forward."
