"I think the 'Six' could make the following step: directly put concrete offers on the negotiating table, give Iran security guarantees and ensure a more distinguished place in negotiations on the situation in the Middle East," Lavrov said.
The six nations negotiating with Iran to suspend its nuclear programme are the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council — Russia, the United States, China, Britain, France — and Germany. Lavrov met with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier in this Urals city on Wednesday.
