Iran - Calls for more talks on their nukes

This is just the ticket Iran wants.

The head of the UN's nuclear watchdog has called on Iran and the West to return to negotiations in the row over Iran's controversial nuclear programme.


So, how did that turn out
last time?

The man who for two years led Iran's nuclear negotiations has laid out in unprecedented detail how the regime took advantage of talks with Britain, France and Germany to forge ahead with its secret atomic programme. [Note the secret part. Iran built an entire nuke plant in secret and it was only discovered when some dissidents exposed it.]

In a speech to a closed meeting of leading Islamic clerics and academics, Hassan Rowhani, who headed talks with the so-called EU3 until last year, revealed how Teheran played for time and tried to dupe the West after its secret nuclear programme was uncovered by the Iranian opposition in 2002.

"From the outset, the Americans kept telling the Europeans, 'The Iranians are lying and deceiving you and they have not told you everything.' The Europeans used to respond, 'We trust them'," he said.


Looks as if the IAEA wants us to continue to trust them. Why?
