Iran: Nuclear fuel swap a chance to boost trust
None
Iran's foreign minister has called a proposed exchange of nuclear fuel an opportunity to boost trust with the West. A 2009 UN-backed plan offered nuclear fuel rods to Tehran in exchange for Iran's stock of lower-level enriched uranium. The swap would curb Tehran's capacity to make a nuclear bomb.
The official IRNA news agency quoted Manouchehr Mottaki as saying Tuesday the exchange will lead to "mutual trust in various fields with the West." (AP)
