Solana cautious on Iranian proposal

EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana today reacted cautiously to a proposal from a senior Iranian nuclear official that France enrich Iran’s uranium on Iranian soil to satisfy international demands for foreign supervision of the Islamic republic’s nuclear program.

“That is something we have to analyse in greater detail,” Solana said on the sidelines of aEuropean Union defence ministers’ meeting in Finland. “It’s an interesting thing, but it’s difficult to put it in place.”
