Iran has confirmed fresh talks with European powers to be held on Friday in Istanbul, the country's state media has reported, the first since the United States attacked Iranian nuclear facilities a month ago.

Iran, Britain, France and Germany will hold nuclear talks in Istanbul on Friday, an Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said early on Monday, following warnings by the three European countries that failure to resume negotiations would lead to international sanctions being reimposed on Iran.

Germany, France and the United Kingdom are coordinating plans to hold nuclear talks with Iran in the coming week, a German diplomatic source told Newsweek.
