Tehran not satisfied with EU talks: Rafsanjani

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, March 7, IRNA -- Chairman of the Expediency Council Akbar 
Hashemi Rafsanjani here on Sunday evening said Tehran is not 
satisfied with the trend of talks with the European states since they 
have not met Iran`s expectations so far. 
Talking to domestic and foreign reporters at the end of the 
International Conference on Nuclear Technology and Sustainable 
Development, he said however, the Europeans have shown some signs of 
good will. 
Answering a question on what would happen if Iran`s expectations 
are not met, he said in that case, the situation would be changed. 
On relations between the settlement of nuclear crisis and 
election of Iran`s new president, Rafsanjani said he could see no 
relations between the two issues, adding that whoever would be elected
as the country`s president will defend the nation`s rights in that 
regard. 
The nuclear issues are parts of the system`s principal policies, 
he further reiterated. 
On the US harsh attitudes towards Iran, he said, soon or late, 
Washington will understand that the correct way of talking to Iran is 
the language of logic and justice. 
As to negotiations with the US, the EC chairman reiterated that 
Washington should show some kind of good will in order to be reliable.
Tehran has not seen any sign of good will from the US authorities so 
far, he added.
