A top European official is expected to fly to Tehran this week to seek an agreement to restart nuclear talks between Iran and world powers after months of delays, officials with knowledge of the meetings said.
Any pick-up of negotiations, aimed at reining in the Islamic Republic’s atomic activities in exchange for sanctions relief, is being closely monitored by energy markets. Western nations including the U.S. and Germany have repeatedly warned they’re not willing to wait forever for a new round of talks on the 2015 nuclear deal to begin after the last one stalled in June.
