Vienna: Iran's position in critical nuclear talks is "worrying", with no change on most issues, a Western diplomat said on Thursday on the sidelines of negotiations in Vienna.
"It is worrying that there is no evolution on the part of the Iranians on most subjects, including sanctions," the diplomat told AFP on condition of anonymity.
Differences between the two sides on uranium enrichment, the central issue not only in this fifth round of talks but for the past decade, remain "major," the envoy said.
The talks between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany aim to strike what would be an historic accord easing fears that the Islamic republic might develop nuclear weapons.
