iran claims progress in 'difficult' nuclear talks

None

VIENNA - Iran's foreign minister said Thursday that progress has been made in "very difficult" nuclear talks in Vienna this week when possible solutions were discussed, sources who attended his briefing for Iranian media said.

 

Mohammad Javad Zarif spoke after a meeting Wednesday with US Secretary of State John Kerry and European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton that lasted some six hours in the Austrian capital.

 

"It was very difficult, serious and intensive ... but instead of focusing on problems, we discussed solutions as well," he said, the sources said. "There was progress in all the fields."
