Reuters - Germany warns Iran it faces new sanctions
Reuters reports: "Iran faces further sanctions unless it changes stance in talks over its nuclear program, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Monday, even if there is no United Nations agreement to act against Tehran."

My Way News - Iran rejects heart of nuclear proposal
My Way News reports: "Iran has told the head of the U.N. nuclear agency that it does not accept an international proposal committing it to quickly export most of the material it would need to make a nuclear warhead, diplomats said Tuesday. [...] The United States and its Western allies have been pushing for a fourth round of U.N. sanctions. But with Russia, and especially China, skeptical of any new U.N. penalties, they have to tread carefully to maintain six power unity on how to deal with the Islamic Republic. A meeting Saturday of senior diplomats from the six powers focused on possible new sanctions but participants said it reached no agreement."
