Iran says report confirms atomic work peaceful
2009-08-30
Iran said on Saturday the U.N. atomic watchdog had confirmed its nuclear program was peaceful and vowed to resist political pressure to change it while insisting it would continue enriching uranium.

"Fortunately the current IAEA report has been more positive than the earlier ones due to the new approach of the Islamic republic," the head of Iran's nuclear energy organization Ali Akbar Salehi was quoted by state television's news website as saying.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report on Friday said Iran had slowed its expansion of uranium enrichment and met some demands for transparency but added that allegations Tehran had researched how to build atom bombs looked credible.
Not even close to the Iranian claim.
The IAEA report will form the basis for talks on Sept. 2 of six major powers to look into harsher U.N. sanctions against Iran over its enrichment of uranium which the West fears is intended for making nuclear weapons.
