Q - Can you confirm that Paris, Berlin and London are getting ready to begin discussions with Teheran to find a way out of the nuclear crisis? Can you give us details about the place and time of the talks?
A - We were informed of the decision by the Iranian authorities to resume certain activities
relating to uranium enrichment, namely the manufacture of components and assembly
activities for centrifuges. This announcement is troubling. We urge Iran
to continue the process it has started to establish confidence-building measures
that would give the international community every assurance of the peaceful nature
of its nuclear program. In this context, together with our partners, we
remain ready to continue our dialogue with Iran to implement the agreement we
reached with Teheran on October 21, 2003. Contacts are continuing.
