Iran: Europe Proposes Nonaggression Pact


Sunday July 31, 2005 12:01 PM

TEHRAN, Iran (AP)- Iran's top nuclear negotiator said his European
counterparts have proposed a guarantee that Iran won't be invaded if
Tehran agrees to a permanent halt on uranium enrichment, the state-run
Islamic Republic News Agency said on Sunday.

Hasan Rowhani said the proposal is under discussion by Europeans and
includes several important points such as "guarantees about Iran's
integrity, independence, national sovereignty" and "nonaggression
toward Iran," the agency reported.

"If Europe enjoys a serious political will about Iran's nuclear fuel
cycle, there will be the possibility of understanding," the agency
quoted Rowhani as saying in a letter to outgoing Iranian president
Mohammad Khatami.
