‘No preconditions for Iran, P5+1 talks’

The fresh round of multifaceted talks between Iran and the P5+1 – Russia, China, Britain, France, the US and Germany – is scheduled to resume in the Turkish city of Istanbul on Saturday, April 14.

“We’re here to make concrete progress and what we want to do is kick off a sustained process,” said Ashton’s spokesman, Michael Mann, who is in Istanbul for the talks, Bloomberg reported.

The second round of the negotiations will be held in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad, the date of which, however, will be announced at the end of the Istanbul meeting.

Tehran and the P5+1 have held two rounds of talks, one in Geneva in December 2010 and another in Istanbul in January 2011.

Iran has welcomed the resumption of the talks based on common ground, but has repeatedly made it clear that it will not negotiate over any of its fundamental rights.
