U.S. Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs William Burns will attend talks with Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili in Switzerland Saturday, officials said Tuesday.
The scheduled meeting in Geneva is being led by European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana.
"This is a one-time event and he will be there to listen, not negotiate," an unidentified senior official was quoted as saying by media reports.
Burns would be at the meeting with Jalili to "reiterate that our terms for negotiations remain the same: Iran must suspend its enrichment and reprocessing activities," the official said.
