TEHRAN, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- Iran's nuclear organization said Friday the third shipment of Russian nuclear fuel arrived at Iran's Bushehr nuclear plants.

The Nuclear Power Production and Development Company of Iran said the 11 tons of fuel arrived Friday and the next five shipments are expected to arrive on schedule, KUNA, the Kuwait News Agency, reported Friday.

Meanwhile, a Russian Foreign Ministry source said the foreign ministers of the six nations involved in discussions about Iran's nuclear program were to meet meet Tuesday in Berlin, Itar-Tass reported Friday. The five permanent member states of the U.N. Security Council and Germany were expected to discuss the Iranian nuclear issue.

"Ways of settlement of the Iranian nuclear issue will be discussed. Russia is firmly determined for the search for a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue only by political-diplomatic means," the source said.
