| Iran: US must accept Iran's nuclear 'realities' |
| 2008-09-17 |
| Iran's envoy to the IAEA urges the US to concede the 'realities' of Iran's nuclear program and respect Tehran's cooperation with the UN nuclear body. "The US and Western countries have to cope with new realities: that Iran is the master of nuclear enrichment technology and at the same time Iran is cooperating with the agency," Ali-Asghar Soltaniyeh told Press TV in a live program aired on Tuesday. The Vienna-based diplomat expressed dismay over the UN Security Council sanctions against Iran for its nuclear program. "We have disappointed the UN Security Council sanctions but we have not taken revenge from the agency by withdrawing from the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)." Soltaniyeh said Iran's transparent cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and its readiness for negotiations about its nuclear program without any precondition has "disarmed the US administration". "Iran has spared no effort to prove to the world" that it is "determined to sit at the negotiations table without any precondition." He said currently there are negotiations between Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili and EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana. He said that the US officials will further isolate themselves if they refuse to accept Iran's nuclear realities. |
