Tehran - Iranian and European Union officials have reached a "preliminary agreement" on resolving concerns over the Islamic republic's nuclear programme following two days of negotiations in Paris, a top Iranian official said on Sunday.

"We reached a preliminary agreement at the experts level, which means a framework that contains the main viewpoints of both sides," a top Iranian negotiator, Hossein Moussavian, told state television by telephone from Paris.

"This agreement is to be taken to the capitals of the four countries, and in the next days, if the capitals approve it, it will be announced officially," he added.

His announcement followed talks between Iran and Britain, France and Germany on getting Tehran to suspend uranium enrichment in order to avoid being hauled before the United Nations Security Council for possible sanctions.
