"Suitable results" in future talks

Iran open to more nuclear talks, says president

AFP: Iran is open to holding further talks with six world powers over its nuclear programme, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Sunday, a day after the failure of the latest round of dialogue. Ahmadinejad's remarks came after the world powers expressed disappointment over the two days of talks held in Istanbul, even as the United States and Germany voiced hopes of holding new negotiations with the Islamic republic. "They have talked for a few rounds, but we never expected that issues would be resolved during these few sessions because of the record and mentality of the other parties," Ahmadinejad said in a speech aired live on state television from the nothern city of Rasht >>>

AlexInFlorida "The USA/ISRAEL refuse to acknoweldege that the IRI has been involved in
peaceful activities that is their right for the past 8 years, during
which time we have had 8 years of intrusive inspections (far more
intrusive than anything Brasil has ever been willng to accept) and the results have clearly proved irans peaceful non diversion of nuclear fuel... even mohamed el barideii, chief un inspector believes the iranian people are being deceitfully and unfairly treated."

However, in 2003 the IAEA reported "it is clear that Iran has failed in a number of instances over an extended period of time to meet its obligations under its Safeguards Agreement with respect to the reporting of nuclear material and its processing and use, as well as the declaration of facilities where such material has been processed and stored."

(//www.iaea.org/Publications/Documents/Board/2...)

So, clearly Iran hadn't fulfilled her obligations regarding the NPT prior to 2003.

Thus, if you ask me, some sort of penalty for Iran's nuclear-related actions prior to that time period should be paid for in some way by Iran...at least if certain international treaty obligations are to bear any real weight in the world community.

And, if you ask me, any (supposedly) more intrusive inspections/verifications of Iran's nuclear program as a result of this history is hardly a form of harsh punishment for a government/nation that claims that their nuclear program is (supposedly) peaceful in nature.

Moreover, unlike the vast majority of NPT-member-states, including the US, Iran has choosen to not implement (through ratification) the additional protocol within the IAEA's inspection/verification system, which invoke inspections/verifications that are argueably more intrusive than the IAEA's earlier inspection/verification system which Iran claims she is still only obligated to fulfill.

So, if you ask me, if Iran's nuclear program is truly peaceful in nature, then Iran should have no issue with implementing (through ratification) the more intrusive and newer IAEA inspection/verification system...particularly since that system is currently implemented by the vast majority of NPT-member-states, including the US.

Behind the scenes. That is his orders from sepah (revolutionary guards): at any price, cost, save our great money making scheme; the islamist regime! The problem is, he simply has no bargaining chips left. His "nuclear thing" has been as a big a flop as his "cyrus cylinder thing!"

Well-said. IRI has no leg to stand on anymore, no leverage. The game is over. They overplayed their hands and lost.

So Alex

You live in Florida and you are anti USA????    How can we trust you to be pro Iran?   Do you understand what loyalty is?  You appear to be well educated - but you have some serious flaws in your core being!!!  I wonder if anything can wake you up.  

Let's assume for a minute you are a great socialist globalist who has the best in mind for all humanity and for Iran.   Can you explain why you would chose to reside where the way of life has been granted to you through a nationalistic capitalism?

NEGOTIATIONS REVEAL THE USA'S AGENDA.. WAKE UP IRANIANS.

by AlexInFlorida on

The USA wants to back mullahs and other extremists that are bad for Iran and Freedom.  Not Khameneii, but ones they can control.  Either the green movement leaders, which were its had picked and financially backed group, or someone else like... take a look who's sitting with the former mayor of new york and secretary of usa homeland security in this picture...

//www.daylife.com/topic/Maryam_Rajavi yes, you guessed right, even while the mojahedin are on the usa terrorist list for killing america personel during the shahs time in power, the mojahedin are getting big dollars in the hundreds of millions from the cia as you read this.

So why is the US Agenda not to help Iranians achieve Freedom, why did they betray the Shah and support khomeini.

I'm just gonna throw it out there... the usa doesn't want freedom for Iran.

The USA is and has been behind every movement to weaken and dominate Iran as we know it.  In hopes of keeping iranian society poor and backward in the hands of people it can have no knowledge about governance so it can control the coutry.. not people like the late shah of Iran who were modernizing and advancing the country.

They have to play this game of double standards because a free Iran is not their objective... infact no Iran which they envision or will support the rise of can have access to peaceful nuclear energy and nuclear know how.  The regions oil needs to be under US control and available for the cheapest price.

This is the Story behind our last 31 years of mass exodus from Iran.  Iranians have a tough struggle ahead of them.  What a pity Iranians did not recognize their own king and betrayed the shah to see how the mullahs would be!

America promoting democracy wishing for democracy, what a joke, it wants absolute domination.

Iranians these talks went badly for ALL IRANIANS NOT JUST IRI

by AlexInFlorida on

Regardless of who is in power in Iran these talks have gone very badly for Iranians, not just the Islamic Rapist Repugnant Republc.

I am not defending the IRI, but these negotiations are clearly based on a DOUBLE STANDARD and this is Harmful for Iranians of all ethnicities.

The USA/ISRAEL refuse to acknoweldege that the IRI has been involved in peaceful activities that is their right for the past 8 years, during which time we have had 8 years of intrusive inspections (far more intrusive than anything Brasil has ever been willng to accept) and the results have clearly proved irans peaceful non diversion of nuclear fuel... even mohamed el barideii, chief un inspector believes the iranian people are being deceitfully and unfairly treated.

The USA/ISRAEL are still maintaining sanctions on the people of Iran. 

The USA/ISRAEL refuse to acknowledge Irans Rights, while allowing Israel to harbor and manufacture nuclear weapons with absolutely no transparency or inspections, not to mentio pakistan and india.

The USA is today massively investing in nuclear weapons research and refuses to put a moratorium on its programs, so change as obama promised has not yet materialized.  The new start treaty recently signed with russia does reduce numbers of existing war heads by 30% to around 1550 each, but nuclear weapons research is still given free reign!!!

It's my humble view while the IRI is low on my list of responsible governments, this negotiation process is bad for all Iranians because it is based on double standards and will not respect Iras right to enrich its own uranium while being supervised.

The Islamic rapist negotiator was right, I have to give him that, their approach, (because it assumes guilt and unfairly focusses just on iran, not brazil or any other signatory) is not logical.

I really don't understand why IRI wants future talk?......this is the behaviors by the IRI's delegation from the talk just ended one day ago:

"At one point Friday, the Iranian delegation left the negotiations for Friday prayers followed by a lunch.

Afterward, chief Iranian negotiator Saeed Jalili stayed away for several more hours, complaining that he had a headache."

//www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/01/22/AR2011012201623.html?hpid=moreheadlines

****************

Look, the talk gives the chief negotiator the headache.......Does IRI need more head-ache causing and fruitless talks?!

Nuclear technology, regardless of the regime, is our national right and interest. It's also totally legal. 

 

 

 

Never increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything.
