Iranian media say talks to go ahead as planned
Iranian media said on Sunday talks aimed at resolving a nuclear standoff with the West would go ahead as planned, in Istanbul later this week, but there was no official confirmation from Tehran or the other capitals involved.
The meeting - a resumption of talks that collapsed more than a year ago - looked in doubt after Tehran voiced concerns about holding them in Turkey, whose opposition to President Bashar al-Assad has angered the Islamic Republic. (Reuters)
