Yekaterinenburg, Russia - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the six UN nations negotiating with Tehran over its nuclear programme should offer Iran security guarantees.
"I think the six could take the following step: firmly place concrete offers on the negotiating table, guaranteeing Iran's security and ensuring it a more prominent position in negotiations in Middle East talks," Lavrov was quoted by Itar-tass as saying.
Lavrov was meeting with his German and Chinese counterparts Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Yang Jeichi in the Russian Urals city of Yekaterinburg.
