No timetable, venue fixed for next round of nuclear talks, Iran says

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Marziyeh Afkham said that the exact timetable and venue of the next round of nuclear talks between Iran and the P5+1 have not been set yet.

However, she stressed that the talks will "definitely" continue, Iran's official IRNA news agency reported on August 6.

Afkham made the remarks while addressing domestic and foreign reporters at her weekly press briefing

The last round of talks between Iran and the world six big powers (US, Britain, France, Russia and China plus Germany), known as the Vienna 6 talks, was held in Austria July 2-20 focusing on drafting a comprehensive agreement between the two sides.

During the talks, the two parties were to meet a six-month deadline (ended on July 20) for a deal to end the decade-old dispute.

Failing to reach a final comprehensive agreement until July 20, Iran and six world powers agreed to a four-month extension of negotiations on a long-term nuclear deal.

The talks are now set to conclude by late November.
