IAEA: Iran nuclear programme peaceful

Iran's Permanent Representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency Ali Asghar Soltaniyeh said the report by the IAEA chief Yukiya Amano stresses the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program. In an interview with an Iranian TV channel on Tuesday night, he said the report is a proof to the fact that Iran's nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes and shows no deviations towards military usages, according to Iran's (IRNA) News Agency. He also termed illogical the call by the IAEA inspectors to visit Parchin nuclear site and said originally there had been no plan to visit the site so they were told that their request was not a practical one in the present juncture. Soltaniyeh stressed that Iran was not worried about any kind of inspections to Parchin site, reiterating that such a visit was not legal and based on regulations.
