Iran, World Powers to Start Experts Talks in Vienna Tomorrow

Iran and the Group 5+1 (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany) plan to hold an experts meeting in the Austrian capital on April 3-6.
Director-General of Political and Legal Affairs in the Iranian Foreign Ministry Hamid Baeidinejad will lead the Iranian delegation in the three-day negotiations with the expert teams of the six world powers.

The experts meeting will be followed by talks between the top negotiators of Iran and the Sextet on April 7 to 9.

Iran and the Group 5+1 representatives had several sessions of talks in Vienna March 18-19.

On November 24, Iran and the five permanent United Nations Security Council members sealed a six-month Joint Plan of Action to lay the groundwork for the full resolution of the West’s decade-old dispute with Iran over the latter’s nuclear energy program.

In exchange for Tehran’s confidence-building bid to limit certain aspects of its nuclear activities, the Sextet of the world powers agreed to lift some of the existing sanctions against Tehran and impose no nuclear-related sanctions on Iran during the six-month period.
