It was reported that Iranian President Mohammad Khatami sent a letter to US Secretary of State, Collin Powell and asked for secret direct talks in Geneva.

However, the foreign minister was quick to deny that the President has never written such a letter.

He went on claiming that Iran does not need clandestine relations to any country but can defend its interest in an open, transparent way.

Secret US-Iran Talks?

I am not breaching any secrecy regulation if I say that ALL branches of the Iranian government from clerics of various brands to government officials regularly is in contact with US and EU officials. Apparantly without the knowledge of other parts of the Iranian "government" This has been going on since the 80s (Sic!)It is very confusing.
