TEHRAN - Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Wednesday said that Iran would offer new proposal package to the world, the official IRNA news agency reported.

Addressing a crowd in Kerman city of Iran's southeastern Kerman Province, Ahmadinejad said that "We are developing a new package. It is prepared to be proposed to the world."

He did not, however, elaborate on the content of the package and whether it has its concern to do with the country's nuclear standoff.

"This document would be the guarantee of peace and justice in the world, of respect to the rights of the nations, and of participation of all the governments and nations to resolve the issues of the world," he added.

In response to West's packages of incentives to encourage Iran to halt its sensitive nuclear program, Iran offered its own package to France, Britain, Russia, China and the United States, plus Germany (G5+1) last year, in which Tehran's concern had been directed to the global issues rather than its nuclear program.

The United States and other Western countries claim that Iran intends to secretly develop nuclear weapons. The UN Security Council also requires Iran to suspend its uranium enrichment activity.

Iran, however, insists that its nuclear plan is only for peaceful purposes, vowing to continue its uranium enrichment activity despite pressure and sanctions from Western countries.
