问题 What is the main message of the news item? [br]  
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said he discussed Iran’ s nuclear program with European Union high representative chief Catherine Ashton and Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi. All agree the dormant nuclear talks should be revived as soon as possible.
    The last round of talks, which were held in January in Istanbul, broke up without any breakthrough on a proposed fuel-swap plan. Under the plan, Iran would agree to end its uranium enrichment program in exchange for enriched foreign material.
    Western powers suspect Iran is planning to build nuclear weapons. Tehran denies this, saying its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes.
    Lavrov said a more detailed approach is needed to ensure Iran does not pursue nuclear weapons.
    Western countries charge that Iran’s nuclear program breaks the terms of the international Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi, who spoke at the United Nations Conference on Disarmament, did not directly deal with this controversial issue? Instead, he lashed out at the major nuclear powers, claiming their huge stockpiles of weapons pose the greatest threat to the survival of humankind.
    Iranian minister Salehi said the indefinite extension of the NPT does not mean the indefinite possession of nuclear weapons. He said the production, possession, development, use or threat of use of nuclear weapons, under any pretext, is illegitimate, immoral and inhumane.

选项 A、It reached an agreement on reducing the threat of use of nuclear weapons.
B、It broke up without any breakthrough on a proposed fuel-swap plan.
C、It did not directly deal with the controversial issue.
D、It discussed Iran’s nuclear program.
