BERLIN, May 16 (Reuters) – Iran should engage with the United States and negotiate over its nuclear programme, Mohamed ElBaradei, chief of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said in a magazine interview released on Saturday.
U.S. President Barack Obama is actively seeking to engage Iran on a series of issues, from its nuclear programme to Afghanistan.
“I advise my Iranian negotiating partners: grasp the hand that Obama is extending to you,” ElBaradei told Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine.
