The bilateral meeting came after Iran and the P5+1 - China, Russia, Britain, France, and the US plus Germany - ended their second round of talks at the Iraqi prime minister's guesthouse on Thursday noon.
The Iranian negotiating delegation was headed by Jalili, and the delegations of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany were headed by Ashton.
Iran and the P5+1 held the first session of the second round of their talks in the Iraqi capital on Wednesday.
On the first day of the negotiations, Iran offered a comprehensive package to the P5+1, while a European Union spokesman, Michael Mann, told Press TV that the group’s representatives put forward a set of new proposals to Tehran.
The P5+1-proposed package “aims to address the international community’s concerns about the Iranian nuclear program. We always said that Iran is permitted to have a peaceful nuclear program,” Mann said in Baghdad on Wednesday.
The previous round of the talks between Iran and the P5+1 was held in the Turkish city of Istanbul on April 14. Both sides hailed the discussions as constructive and agreed to hold the next round of negotiations in Baghdad.
Iran and the P5+1 had previously held two rounds of talks, one in Geneva, Switzerland, in December 2010, and another in Istanbul, Turkey, in January 2011.
