Ahmadinejad: Iran Won’t Negotiate Over Nuke ‘Rights’

TEHRAN (Reuters) – Iran’s president snubbed on Monday U.S. President Barack Obama’s end-September deadline to talk to world powers on its disputed nuclear program, saying in his opinion discussion on the issue is “finished.”

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the Islamic Republic was ready for dialogue on “challenges” facing the world but made clear Tehran would not back down in a dispute over atomic activities which the West fears are aimed at making bombs.

“From our view point (discussion of) our nuclear issue is finished … we will never negotiate on the Iranian nation’s obvious rights,” he told his first news conference since he was sworn into office following a disputed re-election in June.

In Vienna, U.N. nuclear watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei said his agency was stuck in “stalemate” with Iran over issues that had stirred international mistrust in its nuclear designs.

Elbaradei’s renewed highlighting of the deadlock may be timely for Western powers striving to persuade Russia and China of the need for much harsher sanctions against Iran that could target its gasoline imports.

The West suspects Iran is pursuing the means to produce atomic bombs behind the facade of a civilian nuclear program. Iran says its purpose is only to make electricity.

Obama has given Tehran until later this month to take up a six powers’ offer of talks on trade benefits if it stops uranium enrichment, or face harsher sanctions.

But Ahmadinejad said, “cooperation based on respect and justice is contradictory to setting a deadline.”

He invited officials from the six powers — the United States, Britain, China, Russia, France and Germany — to take a look at Iran’s upcoming package of proposals addressing the “main challenges facing humanity.”

Iran was ready to negotiate and cooperate on making “peaceful use of clean nuclear energy” available for all countries and in preventing the spread of nuclear arms, he said.

Hugo Chávez pledges economic support to Iran, attacks Israel

07 September 2009 r

Venezuela is to supply Tehran with 20,000 barrels of petrol a day, President Hugo Chávez said at the end of a two-day visit to Iran. “Venezuela has agreed to export 20,000 barrels of petrol daily to Iran from October in a deal worth 800 million dollars,” Chavez told reporters in the city of Mashhad. He gave no indication of the duration of the agreement. “This amount will be deposited in a fund established in Iran and will be used to finance purchase of machinery and technology from Iran,” Chavez added. “It was also agreed that both sides will within the next 30 days inject 100 million dollars in the joint Iran-Venezuela bank,” he said. Chávez visited Mashhad, Iran’s holiest city, in the company of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Because of a lack of domestic refining capacity, oil-rich Iran is dependent on petrol imports to meet about 40 per cent of domestic consumption.

Earlier, Chávez had lashed out against Israel at a joint news conference in Damascus with Syrian President Assad. “Israel has become a country that annihilates people and is hostile to peace. I believe it is a fateful battle. It is either now or never in order to liberate the world from imperialism and change the world from a unipolar into a multi-polar world,” the Venezuelan president said.

During his visit to Iran, Chávez also declared that Iran had the right to peaceful use of nuclear energy. Ahmadinejad said on Monday that Iran would neither halt uranium enrichment nor negotiate over its nuclear rights but was ready to sit and talk with world powers over “global challenges.” He added that his government would present a package of proposals to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany but rejected any deadline for talks. The group of six nations is currently discussing further sanctions against Iran, including a possible cut of fuel supplies to the Islamic republic, if Tehran continues to stonewall over the nuclear program.
