The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), as the only legal and lawful source has repeatedly announced that there had been no deviation in Iran's peaceful nuclear program, he added.
"Unfounded and ambiguous remarks will not serve the interests of the regional states, nor will they help establish peace and stability in the region," he said, adding that making such remarks would only pave the way for foreigners to take advantage of the issue," Hosseini reiterated.

ReplyDeletegah, just like the Dems.. if they say it often enough, they eventually believe their own lies..
if intended for "peaceful purposes" they wouldn't have run a clandestine operation for 18 years under the IAEA's bent noses, not to mention gladly cooperate with the International Communities offers to help vs the threat of sanctions for the past several years since their nuclear program was exposed..
also not to mention they even stated they were going ahead with their nuclear enrichment ambitions regardless, duh!!
