ElBaradei: Iran must respond quickly to nuclear fuel proposal

UN nuclear watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei on Monday urged Iran to respond quickly to his nuclear fuel proposal, adding that the plan was a chance for Tehran to help build confidence in its atomic ambitions.

"I therefore urge Iran to be as forthcoming as possible in responding soon to my recent proposal based on the initiative of the United States, Russia and France which aimed to engage Iran in a series of measures that could build confidence and trust," ElBaradei told the UN General Assembly.
