Iran will suspend nuclear activities when it is guaranteed delivery of a package of incentives offered by the West, Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul said in an interview published Sunday.
Iran's leaders "appreciated" the incentives offered by western nations trying to woo Iran away from its nuclear program, Gul told Newsweek magazine here last week. "A good package has been given to Iran. During my visit to Iran in August, I met with all the leaders and they said they appreciated the package - I learned this from (Iranian President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad. He said that this package is different from the previous ones," Gul said. "They said that when they are guaranteed delivery of all the things in the package, they will suspend. Both sides lack confidence," Gul said."With good intentions, I think there can be a solution," he added. Ahmadinejad on Saturday vowed that the Islamic republic would not halt enriching uranium even for a short period, rejected a key Western demand over its nuclear programme. |
