TEHRAN, Dec. 10 (MNA) – A prominent Iranian journalist who is in close contact with Iranian negotiating team has said that contrary to what the Western media claim that the three major European countries have conceded to discuss Iran's drafts.

"Iran's remained firm on its position & its drafts are under discussion now," Mostafa Khoshcheshm, a prominent Iranian foreign policy analyst and long-time journalist who closely follows the ongoing Vienna talks between Iran and the P4+1 has said in a post on his Twitter account after posting an image of a news item by the Guardian newspaper that claimed Tehran revised its position after pressure from Russia and China in the Thursday talks between Iran and the P4+1.

"Trapped by Iran's initiative & after ceasing work-group sessions on Iran drafts last week, E3 has conceded to continue discussions on same drafts," Khoshcheshm further underscored.

"Iran's pragmatic initiative made West shift to realism," he underlined.
