Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he is neither "overly optimistic nor pessimistic" regarding nuclear talks with the United States, in his first comment following the start of U.S.-Iran talks which started on April 12 in Oman.



Both delegations described the talks in Oman as positive and have agreed to convene once more on April 19, with Tehran saying the meeting will take place again in Muscat.



"Talks are one of a dozen dossiers followed up by the foreign ministry. We are neither overly optimistic nor pessimistic regarding them. After all, it is a process which was decided and its first steps have been well implemented," Khamenei said in a meeting with members of parliament.
