Tehran:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Sunday welcomed the
resumption of nuclear talks with world powers but reiterated that
Iran would make no compromise whatsoever on its nuclear
programmes.
"Iran welcomes talks but the other side should not think that we
will resume the talks from the position of weakness due to the
sanctions (imposed on Iran)," Ahmadinejad said in a speech in the
city of Ardebil in northwestern Iran.
"No one in Iran is ready to make the least of compromise regarding
our nuclear programmes," he added in the speech, carried live by
the news network Khabar.
Iran and the 5+1, a group that comprises the US, Britain, China,
France, Russia and Germany, are scheduled to resume the nuclear
talks after one year.
The talks scheduled for Nov 15 in Vienna are to be led by European
Union's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, representing the
5+1 group and Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saedi Jalili.
While the world powers seek a suspension of Iran's uranium
enrichment work, Tehran says the talks should be aimed at
acknowledging the country's nuclear projects, including the
controversial enrichment process.
