Iran top nuclear envoy arrives in China for talks
Iran's top nuclear negotiator arrived Thursday for talks with Chinese officials, just after Beijing appeared to drop its opposition to possible new UN sanctions against Tehran over its uranium enrichment program.
China has veto power in the UN Security Council and ending its opposition would be key to passing a resolution against Iran, which is suspected of developing nuclear weapons. The Iranian negotiator, Saeed Jalili, will hold talks with senior Chinese officials "concerning the nuclear program," Iranian state television reported. (AP)
