P5+1 group to hold discussions in Geneva on Iran’s nuclear programme

Negotiating teams from world powers and Iran arrived Tuesday at the UN’s European offices in Geneva for fresh talks on Tehran’s controversial nuclear programme.

The meeting between Iran and the P5+1 group of the United States, Britain, France, China and Russia plus Germany comes after a six-month hiatus in talks over Tehran’s refusal to curb uranium enrichment in exchange for easing sanctions.
