Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Hassan Rowhani said here Friday that the European Union (EU) had presented a proposal that portrays its new position on Iran's nuclear program in the latest round of talks.

"I have brought the EU's proposal to Iran because it portrays a new position on the part of the Europeans, and we must make a decision over the proposal," Rowhani said, quoted by the official IRNA news agency.

Rowhani made the comments upon his arrival in Tehran after holding a key round of talks in Geneva on Wednesday with foreign ministers of the European trio of Britain, France and Germany.

The negotiator said that he had informed the Europeans in the talks that Iran could no longer tolerate the delaying of the talks and would resume some uranium enrichment activities.

"The Europeans have proposed to present a comprehensive plan within the next two months for all-out cooperation with Iran in different areas including technical and nuclear issues," Rowhani added.

"Iran would inform the European trio if it has accepted their proposal. If the proposal is rejected, Iran will resume the enrichment activities," he stressed.

Iran and the EU have just prevented the deadlocked bilateral nuclear negotiations from going further to crisis in Wednesday's talks, during which the two sides in fact prolonged the negotiations to wait for the result of Iran's presidential elections on June 17.

The current deadlock came as a result of the EU's repeated rejection to Iran's demand of keeping restricted uranium activates.

Frustrated Tehran in late April threatened to resume its highly sensitive uranium enrichment activities, which it suspended in last November in exchanged for the economic and technological incentives promised by the EU.

Tehran's threat was immediately hit back by the EU, which warned of backing a US-proposed referral of Iran's nuclear case to the UN Security Council, which might inflict harsh sanctions on the country.

The United States has accused Iran of developing nuclear weapons secretly, a charge rejected by Tehran as politically motivated.
