Munich, Rabi'I 22, 1434, Feb 3, 2013, SPA - Six world powers have proposed holding a new round of talks with Iran on its nuclear programme in Kazakhstan on Feb. 25, Iran's Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said on Sunday. "I have good news - I heard yesterday that the P5+1 or EU3+3 will be meeting in Kazakhstan on Feb. 25," he said at the Munich Security Conference. He did not make clear whether Iran had agreed to the meeting, according to a report of Reuters. Salehi said he would give "positive consideration" to comments by U.S. Vice-President Joe Biden on Saturday in which he held out the possibility of direct talks with Iran. The P5+1 is a group of countries which in 2006 joined the diplomatic efforts with Iran in regard to its nuclear program. The term refers to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany, namely China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States. P5+1 is sometimes referred to as the E3+3 by European countries. --SPA 14:31 LOCAL TIME 11:31 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1074670
