Iran to offer proposals to European trio

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Oct 20, IRNA -- Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi here Wednesday
announced that Iran, during its meeting with the European trio on 
Thursday, will offer some proposals. 
Iran and the European trio (Britain, France, Germany) will hold 
a meeting on Thursday in Vienna to review Iran`s nuclear activities. 
Kharrazi, who declined to elaborate on Iran`s proposals, said, 
"We will wait until representatives of the three European states hand 
over their proposal. Then Iran will set forth its proposals during 
the meeting." 
"We should see whether the European proposal would secure the 
Iranian nation`s rights or not," he told parliamentary reporters. 
On Iran`s reaction towards proposals urging permanent suspension 
of the country`s uranium enrichment, he said Iran`s stands have 
been repeatedly announced. "We do not allow our legitimate right 
to be ignored," he stressed. 
"Proposals should be handed over to Iran in a formal and written 
form. We cannot make decisions on the basis of rumors," the Iranian 
foreign minister said. 
"We are not at all in favor of producing nuclear weapons. We 
are interested in having talks and try to settle the issue through 
negotiations and dialogue," he noted.
