Iran announces it won't negotiate its 'right' to enrich uranium
Lest anyone think that Iran's 'negotiations' with the P-5+1 are anything other than a stalling tactic, Iran's ambassador to France announced on Thursday that Iran will not negotiate its 'right' to enrich uranium. "We have to try through dialogue to resolve them (issues) and reach a compromise and in my opinion it's better not to prejudge these negotiations in advance," Ali Ahani told Reuters in an interview in Paris.What could go wrong?
Ahani said all parties must be realistic in their approach to talks and that the powers should not be worried by Iran's nuclear activities.
"In this sense recognising Iran as responsible and a signatory to the non-nuclear proliferation treaty that insists on using these technologies purely for peaceful and civilian means and to continue its enrichment for civilian purposes can help get out of the current situation," Ahani said.
When asked if discussions on reducing or even cutting uranium enrichment were possible, the former deputy foreign minister replied; "No."
