Khamenei rejects nuke interviews

Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Wednesday that Teheran would not accept "unreasonable demands" by world powers over its disputed nuclear program and ruled out letting inspectors interview its atomic scientists. The comments, broadcast live on state TV, were the latest in a series of forthright statements on inspections in the countdown to a June 30 deadline to resolve a decade-old standoff over Iran's nuclear program.
