The Foreign Minister also dismissed rumours indicating that meeting between Argentine and Iranian government officials would take place today.

"Next week I will hold meetings with the Jewish community. And possibly be January will reach a defining situation. I believe that when you sit down for talks, one must negotiate.”

Those meetings took place Zurich on November 27th and 28th. The Argentine delegation was led by Treasury Prosecutor Dr Angelica Abbona and deputy Foreign Minister Eduardo Zain.
