The Latest from Iran (17 June): "So What?" News --- Ahmadinejad to Leave Politics
2046 GMT: Nuclear Watch. Julian Borger of The Guardian reveals both the Iranian PowerPoint presentation rejecting the 5+1 proposal of "stop, shut, and ship" 20% enriched uranium and Tehran's five-point plan:
1) The right to enrich uranium, coupled with the 'operationalisation' of the Supreme Leader's fatwa against nuclear weapons. [Lead Iranian negotiator Saeed] Jalili suggested this could be done in the form of a UN document, in which Iran promised not to pursue weapons in return for continuing to enrich;
2) Relief from sanctions in return for cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency;
3) Nuclear cooperation in the fields of civilian nuclear energy production and nuclear safety;
4) Confidence-building measures, possibly involving limits on production of 20% uranium;
5) Non-nuclear issues like cooperation on counter-narcotics plus regional matters like Syria and Bahrain.
