Iran’s nuke ‘victory’ (Zero OKs Iranian Enrichment)

‘An important reversal of America’s position!” is how Tehran’s government-mouthpiece daily Kayhan described the outcome of the latest talks between Iran and the 5+1 group of nations on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.

The 5+1 team (the permanent members of the United Nations’ Security Council plus Germany) was led by European Union foreign-affairs spokeswoman Catherine Ashton. High Council of National Security Secretary Saeed Jalili led the Iranian team.

The talks, held in Istanbul on Saturday, supposedly tried to persuade Tehran to comply with UN Security Council resolutions it has ignored for years — the key demand of which is that Iran stop uranium enrichment and open its nuclear sites to regular International Atomic Energy Agency inspection.

ZUMA24.com Pushing ahead: Iran trumpeted a US “reversal” on its nuclear drive after negotiator Saeed Jalili spoke at talks with international officials Saturday. Yet both sides said the Istanbul session dealt only with “confidence-building” measures, including another round of talks in Baghdad on May 23.

The way Tehran sees it, Istanbul showed that the 5+1 group has dropped the UN resolutions’ demand for ending uranium enrichment.

New details on the Iran nuclear talks in Istanbul this weekend, which were largely touted as being “positive,” now show the meeting had, in fact, deteriorated.
