“The Iranian nation is after talks and negotiations but negotiations in a logical and just framework and in line with the fundamental rights of nations,” Ahmadinejad said in his speech broadcast on state television, adding that Iran would not retreat from its rights “one iota”.

But he said in his speech in the city of Qom, south of the capital: “I had intended to speak about the nuclear issue but I will leave that for another time.” He did not elaborate, according to a report of Reuters.
