The move was politically motivated and followed other aims (than the nuclear dispute).

We are in the process of negotiating on the modalities of this participation.

The Russian proposal is based on the establishment of a joint Iran-Russia company on Russian soil for enrichment of uranium...it can be studied, so that its economic, technical and scientific aspects will be clear.

Iran's right on nuclear fuel, especially enrichment, inside the country has to be guaranteed in any proposal.

We agreed to continue our talks in January. Regarding the location, we have agreed on Vienna.

The new Russian proposal can be studied so that its economic, technical and scientific aspects will be clear.

In Iran's opinion the Russian proposal can lead to the extension of a peaceful use of nuclear knowledge. The Russian project can break the existing scientific monopoly on nuclear technology.

An important factor will be the amount of Iranian share in the project.

We have told the (International Atomic Energy) Agency that we are going to inject new initial materials (uranium ore) into the production chain.
