Iran ready for 'fair' talks on its nuclear programme

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr MottakiThere has been a flurry of diplomatic activity on the fringes of the UN General Assembly

Iran is ready to resume talks on its nuclear programme if they are "fair", Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki is quoted as saying.
His comments came after the five UN Security Council permanent members and Germany said they hoped for an early negotiated solution to the dispute.
The UN has passed tough sanctions against Iran over its programme, which some fear is aimed at producing nuclear weapons.
