Taliban 'ready for peace talks'

IRI Majlis (parliament) Speaker Ali Larijani said on Thursday night that Iran is ready to hold talks with Group 5+1 on the condition that the talks are taken serious. The speaker made the remarks at a press conference in Ankara on Thursday. Larijani pointed out that Iran's nuclear case is transparent, but it is facing the West's political games. "Negotiations can take place if they take them seriously and not in a mischievous manner," he added. The speaker pointed out that the Turkish officials proposed the talks to be held in Turkey and Iran also agreed with it.
