World powers should stop threatening Iran if they want to achieve results at talks on Tehran's nuclear programme, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday. Speaking at a news conference on a visit to Azerbaijan, he gave no indication whether talks tentatively scheduled for next month between Iran and six world powers - Russia, the United States, Britain, France, China and Germany - would go ahead.
"If they want to achieve positive results they should stop thinking as aggressors. There are those among them who think as aggressors, and they think they can achieve positive results by putting pressure on us and threatening us," he said. "They should change the old methods, otherwise the results will be the same. No embargoes can change the Iranian people." Both sides have expressed a readiness to meet for talks on December 5 but have not agreed on a venue. Ahmadinejad said Iran had offered to hold the meeting in Istanbul, and the six powers had suggested Geneva.
