Larijani From China: Geneva N-Talks Have Positive Aspects
Local Editor
Iran's Majlis speaker Ali Larijani, in a 3-day official visit to China, said in remarks in the Chinese capital, Beijing, on Wednesday that "the Geneva nuclear talks have had positive aspects, and that certain misunderstandings should be removed."
In mid-October, Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council - the United States, China, Russia, France and Britain - plus Germany held two days of talks over Tehran's civilian nuclear work behind closed doors in the Swiss city of Geneva. The two sides agreed to meet again in Geneva on November 7-8 after an expert-level meeting.
The Iranian official further expressed Majlis' support for the "promising" diplomatic approach adopted by President Hassan Rouhani's administration.
Larijani said the Iranian government is trying to settle the dispute over its nuclear energy program through constructive negotiations.
Since taking office, Rouhani's administration has expressed determination to allay the West's concerns about the issues regarding Tehran's nuclear energy program and resolve the matter based on a win-win approach.
Larijani reiterated that Iran will never develop nuclear weapons and has never pursued that path.
