World powers negotiating with Iran have agreed on a repackaged offer of incentives regarding disputed nuclear program, Britain's foreign secretary said Friday. However, the details of the amended offer being made by the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany were not revealed.
"We've got an agreement on an offer that will be made to the government of Iran," Foreign Secretary David Miliband said following a meeting of the group at Britain's Foreign Office.
The group has previously promised to enhance the package of political, security and economic incentives they put on the table in June 2006 if Tehran suspends its enrichment of uranium, which critics say could feed a covert nuclear weapons program.
Miliband called the new offer an update, but did not say whether the offer contains any new enticements. A Western diplomatic source later said the offer contains nothing new.
Iran had effectively rejected the previous offer before any bargaining began.
Miliband said he hoped for a response "in a timely manner," but set no deadline.
