Secretary of Russia's Security Council Due in Tehran mid August
TEHRAN (FNA)- Secretary of Russia's Security Council Nikolai Patrushev is scheduled to travel to Tehran on August 15 to confer with the Iranian officials on different bilateral and regional issues.
During his stay in Iran, the Russian official will hold talks with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Saeed Jalili.
Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on July 13 had laid out a new "step-by-step" approach that would enable the Islamic Republic to take steps to address the questions raised by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
According to the proposed plan, Iran can revive negotiations to alleviate individual concerns of the IAEA about its nuclear activities and be rewarded along the way by partial removal of sanctions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehman-Parast voiced Tehran's readiness to study a Russian proposal for the settlement of Iran-West nuclear standoff, but said that Tehran has not yet received the plan.
"This plan has not yet been delivered to us," Mehman-Parast said in his weekly press conference, and added, "But, we will study this offer once we receive it."
Meantime, the spokesman stressed Iran's inalienable right to access and use the peaceful nuclear technology, and called on the other sides to recognize and respect Tehran's rights in their proposals.
"If different states are after resolving Iran's nuclear issue they should move in a direction in which the Iranian nation's rights are recognized," Mehman-Parast said.
