Germany hails US readiness on direct negotiations with Iran
The US government initiative regarding direct negotiations is a new and forward political step, the German minister said in a statement published by ministry's website. Steinmeier also noted that the direct negotiations would be a new path to improve relations between Washington and Tehran. The minister called on Iran to take advantage of this opportunity and kick start long awaited talks, noting that such relations would need a positive dialogue and vital steps toward building bilateral trust. Last Wednesday, UN Security Council members, including Germany agreed to ask EU foreign policy Chief Javier Solana to talk to the Iranians to hold negotiations with the US to discuss Iran's nuclear program and end the dispute.
