Iran's senior nuclear negotiator has said his country is ready for fresh talks with world powers over its nuclear programme.
Saeed Jalili said that Iran had revised its proposal to the West, which accuses Tehran of using its nuclear programme to develop nuclear weapons.
Iran insists its nuclear programme is for purely civilian purposes.
"The Islamic republic's package of proposals is updated and ready and will be presented [to world powers]," Jalili said.
"We hope a new round of talks will be held for reaching a world full of progress and justice," he was quoted by al-Alam, Iran's Arabic-language satellite television channel, as saying.
Iran has previously said it is ready for "constructive" talks, but has dismissed demands to halt or freeze uranium enrichment.
The move comes just a few weeks before a deadline this month, set by Barack Obama, the US president, to accept six-party talks.
Obama had given Iran until the end of September to negotiate its nuclear enrichment activities, or face harsher sanctions.
