But details - such as the amount of uranium to be handed over, and how the proposed exchange would take place - have not yet been released.
Al Jazeera's Alireza Ronaghi, reporting from Tehran, said that a Group of 15 summit was scheduled to begin Monday morning in Tehran, and that the fuel swap could be announced at the opening of the meeting.
"The G15 summit will be inaugurated by a speech by President Ahmadinejad and I expect that speech to include some elements about the deal," he said.
"I expect that he will be as defiant and aggressive as ever, but at the same time it will show that Iran is for negotiations and it is giving these concession to show Iran's goodwill."
Speculation had been growing that something would be announced after Erdogan changed his travel plans. The Turkish prime minister had initially cancelled his plans to visit Iran.
Lula's visit, which has included a meeting with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's supreme leader, as well as Ahmadinejad, was seen as a last ditch attempt to mediate a deal.
Before departing for Tehran, Lula had said that he was "optimistic" about the visit, and that he hoped to persuade Ahmadinejad to reach an agreement with the West over its nuclear work.
The US and Russia had warned that the chances of success were weak. But before the talks, Tehran signalled a willingness to listen to any proposals.
"We have received many proposals and we are considering them," Ali Akbar Salehi, Iran's atomic chief, was quoted as saying on Saturday in local media.
"There is a willingness on both sides to resolve the problem and things are moving positively."
Brazil and Turkey, both non-permanent members of the UN Security Council, have so far failed to support US-led efforts to push through new sanctions against Iran over its failure to accept repeated ultimatums to stop uranium enrichment activity.
"I think Iran has an interest in keeping Turkey on its side, in keeping Brazil on its side, and it has an interest to add more friends than enemies," Mahjoob Zweiri, an Iran expert at Qatar University, told Al Jazeera.
Mention the rise in the number of physiotherapist visits across Denmark, and many will blame crossfit and other wear-and-tear fitness regimes – often because they’re too lazy to do it themselves!
However, for once, the nation’s youngsters aren’t to blame, as the segment accounting for the biggest increase in visits is the elderly.
Some 468,280 people in Denmark saw a physiotherapist last year, according to figures from Danske Regioner – an increase of almost 100,000 from a decade ago, when 371,384 needed treatment.
Experts contend that GPs are more inclined to refer patients on to ease their own workloads, and that the public are happier to pay the fees not covered by their insurance.
Problems with the back, hip and shoulders are the most common complaints.
The biggest rise has been seen among the over-65s, who often get their treatment for free, and the numbers bear this out.
The total receiving free-of-charge physiotherapy has soared since 2008, rising from 47,247 to 73,383.
The Forsvarets Efterretningstjeneste intelligence agency estimates it is not very likely that Russia will interfere in the Danish General Election, which will take place by June 17 at the latest, or the European elections on May 26. However, its threat assessment warns that Russia is likely to meddle in other countries...

Editorial: TONIGHT is predicted to be one of the biggest crowds in State Of Origin history.
Game II will be held at the MCG in Melbourne and despite the record breaking potential of the match I can't fathom why we have to play Origin in Victoria.
Melbournians already think they live in the sporting capital of Australia and here we are giving our greatest sporting icon to them for the night. It's a joke. To me, Origin should be played in either Brisbane or Sydney, no where else.
You don't see Melbourne letting Brisbane, Sydney of for that matter Gympie host the Melbourne Cup or an AFL final.
They know that people will travel to go to their iconic events yet we give up our greatest sporting clash on a regular basis.
So while I hope it's a record crowd tonight I hope the NRL rethinks the Melbourne move in future years, unless we can swap it for the Cup.

If you're wondering where San Jose's only Cuban restaurant went - fret no more. Habana Cuba went on a brief hiatus but is now back at a new location in downtown San Jose.
If you're wondering where San Jose's only Cuban restaurant went - fret no more.
Habana Cuba went on a brief hiatus but is now back at a new location in downtown San Jose.
The beloved Cuban favorite made its grand re-opening on Friday at SoFA Market on South First Street. The once sit-down restaurant is revamping its style and is now a counter-style urban eatery.
The restaurant, which has been a San Jose local favorite since 1994 made the decision to close the doors of their Race Street location in late March. Unlike their sit-down restaurant, the revamped Habana Cuba will have a limited menu but will still offer many of the community favorites.
Local fans of Habana Cuba can expect to see Cuban sandwiches, Ropa Vieja, tostones, yucca fries and more.
LONDON (AP) — Swiss officials say an experimental solar-powered airplane has completed a three-day flight across the Atlantic in the latest leg of its globe-circling voyage.

The Aero-Club of Switzerland is responsible for validating records of the flight.

Ohio may be the place to start a business being the least costly state in the region.
Costs associated with starting a new business in Ohio dropped by 21 percent in late September, according to a press release from Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted’s office.
The drop was made possible by Husted office’s reduction in operating expenses by more than $14 million over the past four years.
According to the release, the state has experienced record business growth since 2010 and has made it possible for 80 percent of business filings to be done online.
Now one in two companies can be established electronically through the Ohio Secretary of State’s Ohio Business Central service that includes 100 percent of Ohio-based businesses.
Additionally, new business filings increased by more than 50 entities in September.
Husted announced there were 8,003 new filings in Ohio last month, up from 7,947 in September 2014.
And 2015 is also on course to be another record-breaking year for the state, according to Husted’s office.
As of Oct. 15, there have been 75,377 new businesses formed in Ohio compared to 71,668 new businesses at the same period in 2014.
Is there a secret to making a marriage go the distance? For Mel and Barbara Kornbluh, of Pittsgrove, New Jersey, there is: riding a tandem bike.
"We've been riding a tandem bike together for 45 years," said Mel.
He said they tried riding on separate bikes at first, but then decided on a switch: "Over time we realized we needed an equalizer, and that's how we ended up with a tandem."
According to Barbara, "It was a great way to spend time together, to be fit, and to just have a great time."
Much as it works for them, Mel and Barbara realize sharing a tandem is no universal prescription for wedded bliss: "It doesn't work for everybody," he said. "You have to be willing to share and want to help your partner."
And Barbara advised: "Patience, lots of patience it takes, to learn to ride together on a tandem."
"We're at 197,000 miles now," Barbara said.
"We never thought we'd get this far – it just happened, really," Mel added.
Their secret is obvious to Barbara: "I love biking. I love Mel. So, loving Mel and biking is like one."
Cleveland Indians right-hander Corey Kluber, a two-time Cy Young Award winner and a candidate to finish high in the voting this year, will make his final regular-season start on Saturday night against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium.
Kluber (20-7, 2.83) is a 20-game winner for the first time, the first Indians right-hander to win 20 games since Gaylord Perry went 21-13 in 1974. The only other Indians pitcher to win 20 games in the last 44 years is Cliff Lee, who was 22-3 in his Cy Young Award-winning season in 2008.
Kluber will be the Indians' starting pitcher in Game 1 of the American League Division Series, which will be played Friday in Houston. In his last start, on Sept. 24 against the White Sox, he pitched seven scoreless innings and gave up four hits, with 11 strikeouts and one walk in picking up his 20th win of the season.
"Twenty wins is cool. It's a nice, round number, but as long as we win the game, that's obviously our main goal," Kluber said. "Winning 20 is something to be proud of, but the way I look at it, it means I gave us a chance to win a bunch of times. I think the number one thing it shows is that I stayed healthy and I was ...
Indians manager Terry Francona said watching Kluber get his 20th win was one of the highlights of the Indians' season.
"I think me and the players were all nervous for him. Probably more than he was for himself," Francona said.
Kluber is 8-1 with a 2.74 ERA in his last 11 starts. His last start against Kansas City came Sept. 5, a 3-1 victory in which he pitched 6 2/3 innings, allowing one run and two hits, with 10 strikeouts and one walk.
Kluber leads the AL in innings pitched (210) and walks per nine innings (1.37). He's second in wins, second in strikeouts per walk (6.75) and third in WHIP (0.971).
In four starts against the Royals this year, Kluber is 3-1 with a 3.24 ERA. In 24 career starts against Kansas City he is 12-7 with a 3.02 ERA.
The Royals' Saturday night starter will be right-hander Jakob Junis (8-12, 4.42), who will be making his team-high 30th start of the year. Junis received a no-decision in his last start, which came in a 5-4 Royals loss to Detroit. Junis pitched six innings, giving up three runs and eight hits, with five strikeouts and ...
Junis' last start against the Indians was a 5-1 win on Sept. 3 in which he pitched seven scoreless innings giving up two hits, with six strikeouts and no walks. In three starts against Cleveland this year he is 1-2 with a 6.00 ERA. Junis has made five career appearances (four starts) against the Indians and is 1-2 with...
The Indians, who routed the Royals 14-6 on Friday night for their 90th win of the season, are still just 13-13 in September. Kansas City is 14-12 in September. Cleveland leads the season series between the two teams, 11-6.

Rising income inequality in America is a nuanced topic, but the numbers show that the richest 1 percent are doing much better than others, in part because of tax changes and shifts in the economy.
As Washington returns to business this week, Democrats are primed to make income inequality their top campaign issue of 2014.
But such sweeping rhetoric, along with vague generalizations spouted by partisans on both sides of the issue, can make it hard to get a handle on how big America's income gap is, and to what degree the rich are truly leaving the rest of American behind.
Americans have a general perception: Some 76 percent of respondents agreed that the “rich just get richer” and the “poor get poorer” in a 2012 Pew Research Center poll. And in a 2013 Pew poll, almost half said the wealth gap is a very big problem.
Data support many of those concerns.
The income gap between rich and the middle class or poor has widened during the past three decades. CEO pay has surged. And it’s also true that millions of Americans who view themselves as middle- or working-class are struggling financially in the current economy.
Why has the income gap widened since the 1970s? Many economists emphasize a mix of reasons that include, prominently, how technology has affected the marketplace value of various occupations. In general, new tools of productivity have benefited the most educated workers, while automating some middle-tier jobs out of ex...
Other forces may have also played a big role, from tax changes that disproportionately benefited the rich to rising global competition in the labor market. Recent decades have also seen a decline in the share of workers represented by union collective bargaining, and a decline in the minimum wage relative to inflation.
But a broad look at the numbers shows that there are nuances in the rich-get-richer story.
It’s probably not true, for one thing, to say that “the poor get poorer” these days. Rather, some studies conclude that, when you divide the income ladder into fifths, all groups have been gaining in their disposable income – what they have each month after taxes are paid. And all have gained in the volume of goods and...
The Congressional Budget Office, for example, has pegged middle-class income growth at about 1 percent per year between 1979 and 2010, not a trivial growth rate for a period that’s widely considered an era of wage stagnation.
In addition, there’s some complexity at the upper end of the money scale. Although the share of US income going to the top 1 percent has doubled since 1979, their share of the nation’s wealth has not surged as dramatically. It went from 33.4 percent of US wealth in 1962 to 35.4 percent in 2010, by one analysis.
Here’s how the inequality trend has played.
Back in 1979, it took $336,000 to be counted in the top 1 percent of households by income, according to analysis published last month by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
That year is a watershed for economists who study inequality. Before it came a post-war era when, by and large, all income groups saw their fortunes rise together in concert. From 1979 on, though, inequality has widened and average households have struggled harder to get ahead.
By 2010, the average income of a household in the top 1 percent had jumped to $1 million. Their incomes have been rising more than three times as fast as incomes in the middle tier.
