Iran awaits swift response to nuclear cope
Iran expects a rapid response from entire world powers on an accord to ship much of its lower enriched uranium to Turkey as aspect of a nuclear energy swap package, the foreign ministry proclaimed on Tuesday.
Iran will notify the International Atomic Power Agency (IAEA) of the accord signed on Monday with Turkey and Brazil "in writing, through the regular channels, inside of a week," foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast mentioned.
"We expect members of the Vienna group (the United States, France, Russia and the IAEA) to instantly announce their readiness" to implement the fuel swap, he told reporters.
The IAEA mentioned it has received the text of the joint declaration by Iran, Brazil and Turkey but was now ready for Tehran to notify it straight of what commitments it had undertaken.
"We are now ready for prepared notification from Iran that it agrees with the related provisions integrated in the declaration," IAEA spokeswoman Gill Tudor claimed on Monday.
The so-called Vienna Group created an present last October to ship most of Iran's LEU out of the nation in return for bigger grade reactor fuel to be supplied by Russia and France.
Iran stalled on the offer insisting it wishes a simultaneous swap on its private soil, which was rejected by globe powers.
Monday's accord signed in Tehran commits Iran to deposit 1,200 kilograms (two,640 pounds) of low enriched uranium (LEU) in Turkey in return for energy for a Tehran study reactor.
Mehmanparast proclaimed if the Islamic republic reaches agreement with the countries required in the initial IAEA-backed package, it "will pave the way for additional nuclear cooperation."
