穆塔基稱這項協議會「在不久的將來」達成.


伊朗外交部長表示，把該國的濃縮鈾送往國外進行進一步提煉的最後方案有可能達成。

伊朗外長穆塔基在出席德國慕尼黑年度安全會議時說，這項協議會在「不久的將來」達成。他表示，各方都顯示了完成這項交換的政治意願。

反對對伊朗實施新制裁的中國表示，伊朗與國際社會的磋商已到了一個「關鍵階段」。

西方國家代表團尚未對穆塔基的表態作出回應。

穆塔基是在最後一分鐘才決定參加慕尼黑安全論壇。他對與會者說，伊朗伊斯蘭共和國對此事是認真的，這可以從伊朗最高領導層的立場看出來。

伊朗總統艾哈邁迪內賈德曾表示，德黑蘭準備接受美國等國家提出的要求，把該國的濃縮鈾送往國外進行進一步提煉。

艾哈邁迪內賈德稱，伊朗不擔心大部分濃縮鈾庫存積壓海外，只要能換回燃料棒，伊朗就「沒問題」。

美國及其盟國擔心伊朗意圖開發核武器，伊朗則堅稱其核計劃只屬於和平民用。

美國、英國和法國正在推動對伊朗實施新的制裁，但中國並不贊同。

首次在慕尼黑安全論壇亮相的中國外交部長楊潔篪說，此事最好的解決方案是「集中精力磋商和對話」。

德黑蘭歡迎有改變的核方案
Tehran welcomes nuclear deal, with alterations
Sat, 06 Feb 2010 07:17:46 GMT
Iran's foreign minister says he hopes that an agreement on the nuclear fuel proposal will soon be reached, but with the changes that Tehran seeks.

Manouchehr Mottaki's Friday message came just days after Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad signaled that his country was ready to accept a deal, in what has been seen as a possible breakthrough.

"The most important point is the political will. Personally I feel this will is there," Mottaki said during a late-night debate with his Swedish counterpart, Carl Bildt, at the Munich Security Conference.

"I personally believe that we have created favorable conditions for such an exchange in the not very distant future," he said, noting that he believed the diplomatic atmosphere had improved recently.

The agreement proposed by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) would see Iran ship its low-enriched uranium abroad for further processing, then all of it would be returned for use in the Tehran medical reactor, which produces treatments for cancer.

The Iranian foreign minister warned that his country would not accept the timeline proposed in the draft, which would require Iran to export its uranium and wait for up to a year before receiving the enriched fuel.

"There must be a guarantee for both sides that this (low-enriched uranium) will definitely be given and (highly-enriched uranium) will definitely be returned, this mechanism makes it possible to reach a compromise," Mottaki said.

"The best way to guarantee that all stages of the deal would be carried out according to the agreement would be for the supplier to start enriching uranium feedstock now, so that the exchange could take place simultaneously in some months' time," he said.

Iran has asked for guarantees since the deal was drafted in October. Western powers, however, have so far refused to appease Tehran's concerns, forcing a break-off in negotiations.

The West's two-edged stance on nuclear activity has not helped the negotiations either, with Iran complaining of the unfair privileges that a few certain states have in the UN Security Council that allows them to disregard Iran's legal rights.

Tehran says the Security Council has issued unfair resolutions against Iran's civil nuclear program, in contradiction to UN nuclear watchdog regulations that reserve a right for all countries to enrich uranium as part of a peaceful program. It also says that those unwarranted powers have given the West the leverage to turn a blind eye to Israel's nuclear proliferation and its other violations.

During the Friday meeting, Mottaki once again raised that argument, criticizing Europe for showing opposition to Iran's civil nuclear program. He went on to criticize the West for imposing no sanctions on Israel for its development of nuclear weapons.

"It is the recognized right of Iran to enjoy a peaceful nuclear program," he said.
