Tehran, Iran, Jun. 11 Iran rejected on Sunday parts of a package of incentives offered to it by the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council and Germany in exchange for it to abandon its uranium enrichment activities.
We should classify the package with points which are acceptable, points which are ambiguous, points which have to be improved, and points which should not exist, Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid-Reza Asefi told reporters during his weekly press conference in Tehran.
The Islamic Republic of Iran will not ignore its rights. Our rights are non-negotiable, Asefi said in response to a question of whether Tehran would be willing to suspend uranium enrichment during a period of negotiations with the UN Security Council members.
He rejected claims that Tehran was seeking to stall and buy time to push ahead with its enrichment activities, adding that Tehran would give its response to the package in due course.
