US open to Iran nuclear fuel deal despite doubts
None
The United States said on Monday it was still willing to discuss a nuclear fuel swap deal with Iran, but only if Tehran takes clear steps to address international concerns about its nuclear program.
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said the deal, proposed by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) last October as a means of heading off confrontation over Iran's nuclear ambitions, was still on the table but signaled that Washington had little hope Tehran would follow through.
