7/6/2006 17:38

Iran has been offered a possibility to carry out its uranium enrichment if it meets certain strict conditions, a leading newspaper reported today.

According to the Washington Post, the possibility is based on strict conditions

European and U.S. officials said Iran has to satisfy International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors and the U.N. Security Council, in line with a package proposal worked out by the United States, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany.

IAEA must determine that Tehran's nuclear program is peaceful and the council must be satisfied that it is not seeking a nuclear weapon, the officials told the newspaper.

European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana has conveyed the package proposal to Iran, which included a lot of incentives and a promise of more talks if Tehran agrees to suspend uranium enrichment efforts.
