FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Deputy foreign minister for European and American Affairs Ali Asghar Khaji made the remarks on Tuesday in a meeting with Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt in Stockholm. The two officials discussed Tehran-Stockholm relations as well as issues of mutual interest.
Khaji expressed hope that the West’s new approach to the talks over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear energy program will be realistic and rational.
Carl Bildt, for his part, welcomed the consultations between Iran and Sweden over the issue, underlining measures towards building mutual trust between Iran and the P5+1 group — Russia, China, France, Britain, the US, and Germany.
Iran and the P5+1 group held two rounds of talks, one in Geneva in December 2010 and another in Istanbul, Turkey in January 2011.
While Tehran says it is ready to continue the talks based on common grounds, it has stressed that it will not give up any of its rights.
The United States, Israel and some of their allies accuse Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear energy program and have used this pretext to push for four rounds of UN sanctions and a series of unilateral sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
Iran maintains that as a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it is entitled to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.
