A top Iranian nuclear negotiator has expressed satisfaction with the general atmosphere of the ongoing negotiations between representatives of the Islamic Republic and the United States over Irans nuclear program.
The Iranian negotiating team is headed by Araqchi and Deputy Foreign Minister for European and American Affairs Majid Takht-e Ravanchi, while Acting Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman leads the US team.

The Iranian official said that the two sides had detailed discussions, including on the US-led sanctions against Iran, during the expert-level meeting.

There are solutions to some of the issues and at some stages more discussions should be held and more efforts should be made, the senior Iranian diplomat added.

The senior Iranian nuclear negotiator said the next round of nuclear talks between Tehran and the P5+1 group will be held at the deputy level in January.

The negotiations next month will also be held at the deputy foreign ministers level, said Seyyed Abbas Araqchi.

Araqchi made the remarks after nuclear negotiators from Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council -- Russia, China, France, Britain and the United States -- plus Germany wrapped up talks on Irans nuclear energy program in the Swiss city of Geneva on Wednesday.

The three-day Geneva discussions were organized three weeks after Tehran and the six countries failed to reach a final agreement by a November 24 deadline.
