Europe and the U.S. to Sweeten Offer to Iran
Source: NPR's All Things Considered

But Iranian leaders seem in no mood to stop any of their nuclear activities. The nations are also threatening new economic sanctions, but they acknowledge sanctions already imposed on Iran have not been fully implemented.
In Europe this week, President Bush has again raised the possibility of military action against Iran. The foreign policy chief of the European Union will be in Tehran this weekend for another round of talks on Iran's nuclear program.
Carnegie's Karim Sadjadpour discusses these issues with NPR's Mike Shuster.
