# Delegations have arrived at Iran’s consulate in Istanbul, Turkey, this morning for face-to-face talks between Iran and the so-called E3 group of France, Britain and Germany. Reuters reports senior diplomats from the E3 group are set to hold talks with Iran’s negotiating team for the first time since US and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear sites in June, aiming to gauge Tehran’s appetite for a compromise to avert sanctions. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that Tehran’s position remained firm and steadfast, emphasising their uranium enrichment will continue.
