U.S. President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron talked over phone Tuesday over nuclear talks with Iran and an envisioned peace conference on Syria.
Both sides "reiterated their support for the P5+1's unified proposal and discussed their expectations for the next round of talks," the White House said in a statement.
Iran held three-day intensive talks in Geneva last week with Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States plus Germany, but the meeting failed to produce an interim deal amid hyped expectations.
Iran blamed fissures within the world powers for the failure, while the United States accused the Iranian negotiators of being unable to accept the
proposal on the table.
The two sides agreed, however, to meet again on Nov. 20.
On Syria, Obama and Cameron voiced their "continuing support" for another peace conference in Geneva to seek a negotiated end to the armed conflict in the Arab country, the White House said.
It said they also welcomed the decision by the opposition Syrian National Coalition to attend the planned meeting and reviewed progress on eliminating Syria's chemical weapons.
