Breaking News: Iran to Attend US-Led Talks on Afghanistan

iran-us-flagsThe Iranian Foreign Ministry has confirmed reports from Dutch sources, which emerged last night but were missed by the US media, that Tehran representatives will attend next week's talks on Afghanistan in The Hague.

Iran has not confirmed the level of the officials who will be sent to the discussions, where the US will be represented by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. However, Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said yesterday during a trip to Brazil, ""We believe that a regional solution should be found for the Afghanistan crisis. Iran's goal in the region is to help peace, stability and calm which is necessary for the region's progress."
