British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond[/caption](Reuters) - Britain's foreign minister said on Monday talks to end a 12-year standoff over Iran's nuclear ambitions still had some way to go before Western powers reach a deal with Tehran.
"We are closer than we were but we've still got a long way to go," Philip Hammond told reporters as he arrived for a meeting with his EU peers. "There are areas where we've made progress, areas where we have yet to make any progress."
Hammond, along with�Germany,�France�and the European Union, will meet Iran's foreign minister later on Monday in Brussels.
