VIENNA, May 10, 2006 (AFP) – The UN Security Council’s five permanent members plus Germany are to meet in London on May 19 to consider new incentives for Iran to renounce its disputed nuclear program, diplomats told AFP.
European Union negotiators Britain, France and Germany — the EU-3 — are drawing up a package of incentives to be discussed with Russia, China and the United States, as well as sanctions that could follow if a deal is not reached.
The package will be finished “over the next 10 days, with the goal of securing P5 plus 1 (permanent five members plus Germany) endorsement for the EU-3 to then present the combined package to Iran,” a Western diplomat said in explaining the May 19 meeting.
