Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani will hold delayed talks with European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana on Thursday in Spain, Iranian state television reported on Wednesday.
Solana's office, however, said he was due to travel to Copenhagen on Thursday for talks with Danish officials and would not return to Brussels until Friday afternoon. Solana's aides have said that he was ready to change plans at the last minute if needed.
An Iranian official had told Reuters earlier on Wednesday that Larijani had left for Spain on Wednesday. State television, citing "an informed source" said that as well as meeting Solana on Thursday, Larijani would meet other European officials during his trip. It did not say who he would be meeting, when or where.
Larijani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, had been expected to hold talks with Solana about Iran's nuclear programme in Vienna on Wednesday.
