Demand for referring Iran to UN is attempt to foil Russia's efforts

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Moscow, March 2, Itar-Tass/IRNA -- The demand by the United States for referring the Iranian nuclear dossier to the UN Security Council are an attempt to undermine the Russian proposal on the setting up of a joint venture to enrich uranium, Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani told a news conference here on Thursday.

"The Russian proposal can develop and is quite viable," he said, adding that "we assume that steps will be made toward a successful implementation of the Russian project."
"They (Americans), in fact, are creating obstacles to the Russian proposals," he said.

"The pressing demand by the United States that the Iranian nuclear dossier be referred to the UN Security Council shows the attempts to undermine and destroy the Russian proposal," Iran's top nuclear negotiator said.
