MOSCOW, June 19 (Itar-Tass) —— Negotiations of Iran with the Sextet (five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany) have been on for more than eight hours in Moscow.

Many delegates have had to delay their departure, a source close to the negotiations told Itar-Tass. “The majority of meeting participants were supposed to have departed by now, but they had to postpone their flights,” he said.

EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine Ashton met Iranian Supreme National Security Council Secretary Saeed Jalili within the framework of the Moscow round. Jalili may also have a separate meeting with the Chinese delegation.
