Iran's nuclear facility at Natanz. (AP) Last update - 12:58 02/07/2008 Report: Iran willing to suspend nuclear program for at least six weeks By Yossi Melman, Haaretz Correspondent Tags: Gholam Reza Aghazadeh  Unofficial reports from Iran, supported by several Iranian legislators, suggest that Tehran is willing to suspend its nuclear program for at least six weeks as a goodwill gesture to the West. According to the reports, released on various Iranian Web sites, Tehran would suspend the installation of new centrifuges at the Natanz nuclear facility in the first stage of the suspension, after which it would be willing to halt the enrichment of uranium for an undetermined amount of time. The steps would be taken in exchange for the launching of new talks with the five representatives of the United Nations Security Council and Germany (P5+1). Advertisement Several members of the Iranian parliament confirmed on Tuesday that the Iranian vice president and head of the country's Atomic Energy Organization, Gholam Reza Aghazadeh, has agreed to the proposal. The legislators said that unofficial talks with Security Council members are expected to begin next week. The report also says that the suspension is part of a package of incentives European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana offered Iran roughly two weeks ago in an effort to encourage Tehran to halt its nuclear program.
