Iran agreed to a new round of talks over its nuclear program next month in Turkey, marking the first time in a more than a year that the sides committed to keeping diplomatic options alive.

The agreement between Iran and the so-called P5+1 group -- comprising China, France, Germany, Russia, the U.K. and U.S. -- followed two days of negotiations in Geneva, European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said today after the talks ended. Diplomats said before the meetings in the Swiss city that they wanted to build a framework that lead to more negotiations.
