Iranian president says negotiations could lead to 'win-win' outcome
President Xi Jinping said on Thursday he welcomed Iran's openness to begin talks with world powers over its nuclear program and said he respects the country's legal rights concerning nuclear energy.
Chinese observers said the new Iranian government is showing more flexibility in resolving issues related to its nuclear program but that Teheran will by no means suspend its right to the civilian use of nuclear energy.
