Iran rejects incentives to abandon nuclear work

IRAN yesterday rejected a broad package of EU incentives offered if it agreed to abandon all nuclear fuel work.

Negotiator Hossein Moussavian said: “The proposals are unacceptable. They negate Iran’s inalienable rights.”

EU negotiators have called for an emergency meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency, which could refer Iran’s nuclear dossier to the UN Security Council for possible sanctions.
