unwilling to abandon nuclear enrichment — the key U.S. demand.

It's not just the U.S. demanding the termination of uranium enrichment, but this way the AP can frame it as a United States vs. Iran issue.

Take a look at this:

This is how it was framed in the first AP article detailing Iran's new penchant for "serious" talks:

Iran says it's ready for 'serious' talks:

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran's top nuclear negotiator said Tuesday that Tehran was ready to enter "serious negotiations" over its disputed nuclear program but did not say whether it was willing to suspend uranium enrichment — the West's key demand. ----------------------
And note the change in wording in the article after that:

Iran wants to talk but keep nuke program:

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran said Tuesday it was ready for "serious negotiations" on its nuclear program, but a semiofficial news agency said the government was unwilling to abandon nuclear enrichment — the key U.S. demand. -------------------

So, in the space of about two hours, it suddenly became purely a "US" demand as opposed to a "West" demand. Fishy...

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Iran with their allies, France, China, Russia, you know, all the oil for food beneficiaries, will use these talks to further isolate the US position and move closer to Iran. Condi and W are being taken to the cleaners by Iran since the Iraq invasion with the help of the traitorous left and their media sock puppets.
