Iran Slams US's 'Repugnant' $20Mn Reward for Nuclear Info
Iran hit out at the United States' $20 million reward for information on its nuclear program on Wednesday, calling it "repugnant and regrettable". Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi urged the United Nations' atomic energy agency and the Security Council to condemn the reward, which was announced last week. Last Friday, the US military said up to $20 million and "possible relocation" were available for information about the program's "facilities, equipment, and associated personnel".
Iran is reviewing proposals brokered by Qatar to address differences with the US over Tehran’s nuclear programme, The Hindu reported on Nov. 7, citing officials. Earlier, The Jerusalem Post reported that a senior Iranian official said Tehran had sent Washington a nuclear proposal through Qatar on Nov. 5. The official said Iran would discuss it only after the US met seven demands, while another Jerusalem Post report said Washington was reviewing the proposal. The Hindu described the proposals as a route toward indirect talks; reports have not detailed the proposals or the demands.
