VIENNA (Reuters) - The U.N. nuclear watchdog and Iran will hold a new round of talks on September 27 over Tehran's disputed atomic programme, the first such meeting since relative moderate Hassan Rouhani took office as Iranian president.

The meeting will be held in Vienna, a spokeswoman for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said. It would be the 11th round of discussions between the two sides since early 2012, so far without any result.
