TEHRAN, April 25 (Reuters) - Iran's Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said on Wednesday Tehran hopes that talks with the European Union would help arrive at a formula that all sides accept for solving Iran's nuclear programme crisis.

"We hope that these talks would continue until we arrive at a formula acceptable to all sides," Mottaki told a news conference. He spoke in Farsi but his remarks were dubbed in Arabic by al-Alam television which carried the event.

Iran and the EU resumed talks on Tehran's nuclear programme in Turkey on Wednesday. The West fears Iran wants to make an atomic bomb but Tehran says its atom activities are only aimed at generating electricity.
