Washington, January 03 () - Reacting to the Iran's "ultimatum" to West over nuclear swap, US National Security Council spokesman Mike Hammer said that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) proposal already offered to Tehran "is sufficient". "The IAEA has a balanced proposal on the table that would fulfill Iran's own request for fuel, and has the backing of the international community," Hammer said, according to Qatar News Agency (QNA) on Sunday.
"If getting access to fuel is Iran's objective, then there is absolutely no reason why the existing proposal, which Iran accepted in principle at Geneva, is insufficient. The Iranian government is standing in its own way," the (ABC) News quoted the US official as saying Sunday.
Iran set a one-month deadline Saturday for the West to accept its counterproposal to a U.N.-drafted nuclear plan and warned that otherwise it will produce reactor fuel at a higher level of enrichment on its own.
