Iran’s foreign minister could meet counterparts from the major powers in New York later this month to press efforts for a comprehensive nuclear agreement, his ministry said today. Mohammad Javad Zarif and the top diplomats from the six powers will be in New York to address the five-yearly review conference of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which opens on April 27. “It could be possible that negotiations take place on the sidelines,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham told a news conference.
