IRNA

Tehran, Oct 21, IRNA -- Iran`s permanent representative to the 
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Ali Akbar Salehi here on 
Tuesday said that Tehran and Moscow will soon sign an agreement on 
return of the spent nuclear fuel to Russia. 
Speaking to reporters, he added that in accordance with the 
agreement due to be signed between the two states, the Russians will 
soon deliver the required nuclear fuel to Iran. 
He told IRNA that Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant not only continues 
its operation, but the trend will accelerate. 
In response to IRNA`s question whether the visit of the three EU 
foreign ministers took place in coordination with the US, he said 
that he believed that such coordination had been made. 
In reply to another question on the extent of the closeness of 
the outlooks of Germany, Britain and France to that of Iran, Salehi

analogous to ours." 
Turning to the duration of the suspension of uranium enrichment 
by Iran, he said that it has to be determined by Iran.
