NCRI - The European Union and Iranian regime still appear to be on a collision course over Tehran's alleged atomic weapons intentions despite the revival of talks, diplomats and analysts told AFP Thursday.
The EU talks with Iranian regime resumed on Wednesday over Tehran's nuclear program but with the regime insisting on its right to make nuclear fuel, and the West suspicious that this could be used to manufacture atom bombs, the two sides are far apart, EU and mullahs' officials said.

The Iranian regime announced yesterday that a former Iranian
Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) commander, Abu Taleb Shafeghat, has
been appointed as the new governor of the northern Caspian Sea province
of Mazandaran. This is the seventh such appointment of a military
commander to a provincial governorship since Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took
office as president of the clerical regime in Iran. Six other IRGC
commanders had previously been appointed as governors of Kermanshah,
Ardebil, East Azarbaijan, Bushehr, Ghazvin and Khuzistan provinces.
More than half of the ministers of Ahmadinejad’s cabinet, and according
to the state-run website Baztab, more than 70% of deputy ministers are
former IRGC commanders.

NCRI – Iranian regime will halt its human rights dialogue with the
European Union, according to mullahs’ foreign ministry spokesman, after
it condemned continued abuses by the regime.
"During the current year, the EU has put forward human rights
resolutions with political intentions, and naturally this trend will
leave no place for Iran to continue human rights talks," state-run
media quoted the spokesman on Thursday.

Reuters - European powers revive dialogue with Iran on Wednesday over
suspicions it is secretly trying to make nuclear bombs, but weeks of
tension have diminished hopes they will make headway in defusing the
crisis.
Confrontation rather than compromise has been brewing after
declarations from Iran that the Holocaust is a myth and Israel should
be wiped out, and a European Union accusation on Tuesday that Tehran
has serially violated human rights at home.
