The United States Wednesday brushed aside a comment by Iran's foreign minister that Tehran may be willing to discuss a halt to uranium enrichment. The State Department says what is required is a formal Iranian reply to the U.N. Security Council resolution giving Iran until the end of the month to suspend enrichment or face sanctions. 


---------


Officials here are dismissing the comments of Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki as just another in a series of conflicting remarks from Tehran on the nuclear issue, and they say what is needed is clear-cut Iranian response to the U.N. resolution.


The Security Council late last month gave Iran until August 31 to suspend uranium enrichment and renew negotiations 1 over its nuclear program, or face international sanctions.


The Iranian foreign minister told reporters in Tehran Wednesday that while the call for an end to enrichment is, as he put it, illogical, the matter could be discussed in negotiations.


Those comments, which came only a day after what seemed to be a flat rejection 2 of the U.N. resolution by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, drew a cool response from State Department Acting 3 Spokesman Gonzalo Gallegos. He told reporters the United States and the rest of the international community want a definitive 4 Iranian reply.
