Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia's envoy at the Iran nuclear deal talks, arrives at the Palais Coburg in Vienna, where the IAEA-brokered talks are set to resume in hopes of finding a way to save the historic accord brokered in 2015. This is the first time since March that all the parties (Iran, Russia, China, France, the United Kingdom and Germany) are meeting, with the participation of the United States, in order to save the agreement, which was supposed to prevent the Islamic Republic from acquiring atomic weapons.

The quarterly IAEA Board of Governors meeting opens in Vienna amid stalled talks to revive a 2015 nuclear deal, as major European countries and the United States are expected to seek to censure Iran.

International delegations are gathered in the Palais Coburg hotel in Vienna for talks on Iran's nuclear programme, which are restarting after a five-month hiatus.

US State Department spokesperson Ned Price says the US could reach an agreement quickly on reviving a nuclear accord if Iran is "serious" as a resumption of indirect negotiations are announced for November 29. SOUNDBITE
