Tehran: Iran is ready for serious negotiations with the West to end a row over its atomic plans, Iran's chief nuclear negotiator said on Monday.
"Today, with the nuclear fuel cycle complete, we are ready to begin real negotiations with the aim of reaching an understanding," Ali Larijani said in a speech.
Larijani reiterated that Iran will not be pressured by sanctions and that Iran "will show a serious reaction" against any form of tension.
Iran insists on its right to enrich uranium, which the West says Tehran is using as a cover up for nuclear weapons work.
