Iran stands by nuclear consortium offer
Sun, 22 Feb 2009
A member of Iran's parliament has supported the idea of building an internationally-run nuclear enrichment plant inside the country.
"An internationally-run nuclear consortium will be effective in resolving Iran's nuclear challenge with the West," a member of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Hossein Sobhani-Nia told IRNA news agency on Sunday.
Tehran had previously made an offer to the United Nations to build an international enrichment facility inside Iran in a bid to resolve the controversy surrounding the Iranian nuclear program.
Tehran says the only aim of its nuclear program is the civilian applications of the technology. The US, Israel and their European allies -- Britain, France and Germany -- accuse the country of pursuing military purposes.
Iran's proposal followed a plan suggesting that the White House should help build an internationally-run enrichment facility inside Iran to replace the country's current facilities.
On Saturday, former German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder welcomed the prospects of Iran's offer as "acceptable".
