'"Iran's plan is basis of nuclear talks" - Iranian lawmaker

Following an announcement by the EU foreign policy chief regarding the willingness of the P5+1 nations to resume talks with Iran, a senior Iranian lawmaker insists that Tehran's basis for the talks would remain its proposed package, Press TV reports.
The proposed package has always been Iran's basis for the talks, just as the West and P5+1 governments presented their own suggested package during talks, and Iran intends to continue the negotiations within the framework of this package, the chairman of the Majlis's (parliament) National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, Alaeddin Boroujerdi, said on Sunday.

In a letter to Tehran on Friday, Catherine Ashton said if Iran is ready to discuss concrete confidence-building measures without preconditions, the P5+1 - Britain, China, France, Russia, and the United States plus Germany - “would be willing to agree on a next meeting within the coming weeks at a mutually convenient venue."

Ashton added that the goal of the talks "remains a comprehensive negotiated, long-term solution which restores international confidence in the exclusively peaceful nature" of Iran's nuclear program.
