Iran's government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham on Monday said Tehran considers the package of incentives presented to Iran by the six powers as a "step forward." "We are discussing Europe's proposed package. We will examine it in full and give our decision. "We will not negotiate with anyone on our inalienable and legal rights but we are ready to hold talks on all international issues and those of common concern," Elham said, according to IRNA.
He reiterated Iran's "inalienable and legal" right to nuclear energy, saying "the government has repeatedly announced its clear stance on the nuclear fuel cycle issue."
