“Iran has recently received a proposal from Iraqi officials who said that the fourth round of Iran-US talks be held in early January,” Hosseini told reporters at his weekly press conference.

Referring to the latest round of talks between Iran’s top nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, and his EU counterpart, Javier Solana, the spokesman said on issues such as nuclear activities Iran adopted “principled policies which were stressed in Jalili-Solana meeting.” The two met for five hours in London on December 1st.

Commenting on a comment attributed to Jalili that he was not faithful to Larijani’s commitments, the spokesman said, “On the contrary, it was the other side (Solana) who openly expressed disagreements during the London talks to ideas mentioned in previous sessions.”
