A UN spokesman said that the UN secretary general in a phone talk with Iran's foreign minister a day after US response to Iran views on the EU text, expressed hope that the nuclear negotiations will lead to an agreement.

The President called Iran's move to begin 60% enrichment a response to the Zionist Regime's nuclear terrorism and said, "Iran's 60% enrichment was a response to malice. You cannot commit a crime. If you do, we will cut your hands. By replacing IR6 centrifuges with IR1 and 60% enrichment, we cut your both hands".
