NEW YORK , Aug 6 (Reuters) - Russia's U.N. ambassador said on Wednesday that Moscow has set no deadline for Iran to respond to an offer from six world powers aimed at resolving Tehran's nuclear stand-off with the West.
'We haven't set any deadlines ourselves for their response and there is ongoing dialogue,' Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters. 'Certainly there is a matter which is going to be discussed ... by the ministers in September.'
