Iran Nuclear Talks Fail With No Resumption Date Given

“We’ve talked in greater detail than ever before,” with a “real back and forward between us,” though the two sides “remain far apart in substance,” European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton told reporters after two days of negotiations in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
