VIENNA, Dec 20: Iran and the European Union are to meet on Wednesday to try to break a deadlock over Tehran’s insistence on its right to make nuclear fuel. European and Western diplomats fear the meeting in Vienna of foreign ministry political directors from Britain, France and Germany and Iranian National Security Council official Javad Vaidi will be all but futile because of Iran’s increasingly hard line over its nuclear programme.
But an EU diplomat told AFP that the Europeans were ready to be “realistic and distinguish between what is desirable and what is possible,” namely by accepting some fuel cycle work while drawing the line at enrichment.—AFP
