Iran regime rejects incentives offered by world powers

NCRI – Iranian regime’s foreign ministry spokesman, Mohammad Ali Hosseini, said Sunday that mullahs’ regime won’t consider any proposals in talks with the West that would require it to stop enriching uranium.

Hosseini said “no incentive weighs equally” with enriching uranium that he defined as "undisputable.”

The UN Security Council has adopted three resolutions imposing sanctions on the ruling mullahs in Iran for continuation of uranium enrichment activities. The Iranian regime has defied the UN Security Council resolutions.

On May 2, the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council — the United States, France, Britain, China and Russia — and Germany agreed to offer a new package of incentives to the regime in return for ceasing uranium enrichment activities, a major component of building a nuclear bomb.

Two days later, Ali Khamenei, mullahs’ supreme leader in a speech vowed that Iranian regime would press ahead with its nuclear program.

Although Khamenei made no reference to the new package, his comments was considered as a sign that the regime had no intention of stopping its drive to obtain nuclear weapons.
 
“We will continue on our own path with strength” and “no threats would deter” us to “back down”, the sate-run radio quoted Khamenei as saying on a visit to the southern province of Fars.

Hosseini’s remarks to the reporters are the latest official comments on the issue.
