Rouhani: Iran's progress in science needs no one's go-ahead
2015-02-18
[Iran Press TV] Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says the Islamic Republic will not need permission from any power in the world to make scientific and technological progress.

Everyone must know that the Islamic Republic of Iran will never seek anyone’s approval for making progress in science and technology, President Rouhani said Tuesday in a ceremony marking Iran’s National Space Technology Day.

In his speech, the Iranian president also touched upon Iran’s ongoing talks with the world powers on its nuclear energy program, saying that interacting with the world does not mean that Tehran will give up its scientific endeavors.

Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council – the United States, France, Britain, Russia and China - plus Germany, known as the P5+1 group, are currently engaged in negotiations to finalize a deal on Tehran’s nuclear energy program.

Rouhani said no one should think that negotiation with the world means that Iran will quit making progress in a certain branch of science.
