A European Union (EU) spokesman says a recent meeting between Iran’s top negotiator and the EU deputy foreign policy chief in Brussels was “useful” as Tehran and world powers seek to set a date for the resumption of sanctions-removal talks in Vienna.

Peter Stano said on Friday that the Wednesday meeting between Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Ali Baqeri-Kani and Enrique Mora in Brussels “helped to define a way forward to resume negotiations in Vienna.”

Speaking at a regular briefing, Stano added, “We are working together with other partners, including Iran and other signatories (to the 2015 nuclear deal) to fix a concrete date as early as possible to reconvene in Vienna.”

In a tweet following the talks with Mora, Baqeri-Kani said Iran will rejoin the negotiations aimed at the removal of the United States’ sanctions against Tehran before the end of November.
