Tehran readies proposals for West

Iran is preparing a package of proposals to present to Western powers that could be a basis for future talks, the country's foreign minister said Saturday. Manouchehr Mottaki told reporters that the package will deal with political and economic issues as well as security and international affairs, but he did not say whether its proposals also covered Iran's nuclear activities.

The U.S. and its European allies want to draw Iran back into negotiations over its nuclear program. At the Group of Eight summit in Italy last week, President Obama said there is now a September "time frame" for Iran to respond to offers to discuss its nuclear program.
