Iranian parliament to oblige gov't to observe red lines in nuclear talks

TEHRAN (Tasnim) The nuclear commission of Irans parliament plans to propose a motion to oblige the countrys negotiators engaged in nuclear talks with world powers to vigilantly observe Irans red lines in the course of talks for striking a final nuclear agreement, a senior lawmaker said.
Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency on Sunday, Ebrahim Karkhanei, chairman of the parliaments nuclear committee, said efforts are underway for introducing a motion that, if approved, will require the nuclear negotiating team to observe the countrys entire red lines in the talks with the sextet of world powers (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany).
Irans uranium enrichment program, the operation of Fordow nuclear site and the Arak heavy-water reactor and nuclear inspections within the framework of Irans dignity, were among the red lines that Karkhanei said must be taken into account.

The Western communities and the Group 5+1 should know that Irans parliament will not remain silent and will not allow the countrys interests to be at stake, Karkhanei stressed.

Iran and the G5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) are in talks to hammer out a final deal to end a decade of impasse over Tehrans civilian nuclear work.

On November 24, 2013, the two sides signed an interim nuclear deal in the Swiss city of Geneva.

The Geneva deal (the Joint Plan of Action) came into effect in January and expired in July, when the parties decided to extend negotiations until November 24 in the hope of clinching a final deal that would end a decade of impasse over Tehrans peaceful nuclear energy program.

Meanwhile, the parties are said to be preparing for a last-ditch effort to reach an agreement on November 18 in Vienna.
