Vienna Negotiations with Iran as part of international efforts to get the country to curb its nuclear programme will resume today in Vienna, according to the European Union, which is coordinating the talks. Discussions with top representatives had been adjourned last week for further deliberations back in the capitals of the participating countries. The talks, now in their seventh round, have been marked by tensions between Iran and the United States. Washington has tempered hopes of a swift breakthrough, while diplomats from Germany, Britain and France have expressed disappointment that Iran is no longer willing to abide by previously negotiated compromises. Tehran, for its part, has voiced confidence that an agreement is possible, despite the bumpy start. (Agencies)
