Secretary of State at the Swiss Foreign Ministry Yves Rossier underlined his country\'s opposition to the western sanctions against Tehran, and expressed the hope that problems and misunderstandings between Iran and the West will be removed. Rossier made the remarks in a meeting with Mayor of Qom Mohammad Delbari on Wednesday On the western sanctions against Iran, he said Switzerland has so far resisted against cooperating with the West on sanctions and opposes them. Rossier expressed hope that existing misunderstandings would clear up and a basic solution would be explored for the problems. Washington and its western allies accuse Iran of trying to develop nuclear weapons under the cover of a civilian nuclear program, while they have never presented any corroborative evidence to substantiate their allegations. Iran denies the charges and insists that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. Tehran stresses that the country has always pursued a civilian path to provide power to the growing number of Iranian population, whose fossil fuel would eventually run dry. Despite the rules enshrined in the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) entitling every member state, including Iran, to the right of uranium enrichment, Tehran is now under four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions and the western embargos for turning down West\'s calls to give up its right of uranium enrichment. Tehran has dismissed West\'s demands as politically tainted and illogical, stressing that sanctions and pressures merely consolidate Iranians\' national resolve to continue the path. Tehran has repeatedly said that it considers its nuclear case closed as it has come clean of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)\'s questions and suspicions about its past nuclear activities.
