When I talk about the assets, that was at the beginning of the talks. I was president then. I'm not president now. When I said it, this would be a sign of goodwill to begin the talks.

There is no doubt that America is a superpower of the world and we cannot ignore them.

I believe the main solution is to gain the trust of Europe and America and to remove their concerns over the peaceful nature of our nuclear industry and to assure them that there will never be a diversion to military use.

Im not satisfied with the progress of the work, but I am happy that the talks are going on. It might have a negative effect if the United States joins.

Iran is determined to use peaceful nuclear technology and no intimidation or threat can make us give it up.

I think that Americans should gradually begin to adopt positive behavior rather than doing evil. They should not expect an immediate reaction in return for their positive measures. It will take time.

Condi Rice talks tough but she cannot be tough herself.
