Iran is ready to consider the exchange of nuclear fuel with the opposite side, Iranian FM Manouchehr Mottaki told IRNA news agency.

According to him, Iran’s initiative to exchange the fuel indicates country’s goodwill.

Mottaki underlined that it is a positive factor for the opposite side, though there was no echo to Tehran’s proposal yet.

“We do not insist on our proposal, we aimed to open a door for the other side,” IRNA quotes Iranian FM.

Earlier, Iran declared its readiness to swap 400 kg of uranium in Kish Island.
