Iran: West Not Allowed to Threaten Tehran at the Negotiating Table
(Fars-Iran) Senior Iranian nuclear negotiator Hamid Baeidinejad said Monday that Western countries are not allowed to threaten Tehran at the negotiating table. "We negotiate on equal footing and with mutual respect and don't allow the other side to participate in the negotiations with a hidden gun and in (military) boots." He stressed that "all the EU, U.S. and UN Security Council sanctions will be terminated on the first day that final nuclear deal comes into effect." He also emphasized Tehran's determination to continue R&D activities and said "Iran will continue nuclear fusion technology" even after a final deal with the powers. Noting that "Iran holds no trust in the U.S.," he stressed that "the issue of Iran-U.S. rapprochement has never been on the agenda of talks."
