Iran is ready to exchange 1,200 kg of low-enriched uranium in one go for nuclear fuel only inside the country, local newspaper Javan reported on Wednesday.
Javan quoted Head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization Ali Akbar Salehi as saying that Iran is willing to deliver 1,200 kg of 3.5 percent enriched uranium in order to receive about 120 kg of 20 percent enriched uranium, Xinhua reported.
"We are ready to deliver the total amount of fuel in one go on condition that the exchange should take place inside Iran and simultaneously," Salehi said.
He also said that Iran has the ability to enrich uranium up to 100 percent, but it is not necessary to do it at the present time.
It was the first time that Iran expressed readiness to exchange its 1,200 kg of low-enriched uranium in one go.
Iran said previously it would only hand over its low-enriched uranium stocks in phases.
