On February 15, Iran's chief negotiator and Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Secretary Saeed Jalili replied to EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton's letter on talks between Tehran and the six world powers, and welcomed resumption of negotiations between the two sides.
In the letter, Jalili welcomed the readiness of the Group 5+1 (the five permanent UN Security Council members - Russia, China, Britain, France and the US plus Germany) to resume talks with Iran.
