GENEVA: Britain’s foreign secretary said after several hours of talks Friday between top European diplomats and their Iranian counterpart that the Europeans are “keen to continue ongoing discussions and negotiations with Iran.”

Foreign Secretary David Lammy said the Europeans were clear in talks in Geneva that Iran “cannot have a nuclear weapon.”

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said that “very serious talks” were held Friday with Iran’s Abbas Araghchi.

The European ministers gave few details and took no questions.

Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said: “We support the continuation of discussions with E3 and EU,” and that they are prepared to meet again in the near future.
