Chief Iranian negotiator on nuclear issues Saeed Jalili welcomed the positive attitude of the six world powers expressed during negotiations in Istanbul. World powers have agreed on the continuation of talks on May 23 in Baghdad, Iraq. Iran satisfied with Istanbul nuclear talks Jalili praised the "other side's desire for dialogue and cooperation", reports AFP. "We consider it a positive sign... for the people of Iran, the language of threats and pressure does not work," said the Iranian official. Jalili said that the next round of talks should be based on "confidence-building measures", which according to him should include the topic of Iran's request for the lifting of sanctions. Iran's chief negotiator reiterated that the Islamic Republic needed to enrich uranium to 20 percent, for peaceful purposes, Reuters reported. "Any right specified in the Treaty on the Nonproliferation of Nuclear Weapons should be respected," said Jalili, and added that uranium enrichment was one of those rights, "which every individual member states should benefit from and enjoy, for peaceful purposes" . EU High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy Ashton said that today's talks between the representatives of Iran and the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany were "constructive and useful". The UN Security Council imposed sanctions against Iran on four occasions, suspecting that the country's nuclear program was meant to produce nuclear weapons, something that Tehran denies categorically.
