Iran ready to continue N-talks with IAEA

“Our position is that we are going to continue the talks for cooperation with the agency and we hope that this process will be successfully going on,” Iran’s IAEA Ambassador Ali Asghar Soltanieh told Reuters late on Thursday.

“We try to be cooperative,” Soltanieh added. “We are dealing with the questions and we are trying to remove ambiguities.”

On February 21, a high-ranking delegation from the IAEA came to the Iranian capital for negotiations about further cooperation on Iran’s nuclear program. The visit was preceded by another trip to Iran by a team of IAEA inspectors on January 29.

Both teams were headed by IAEA Deputy Director General Herman Nackaerts.

While Tehran says it is ready to continue the talks based on common grounds, it has stressed that it will not give up any of its rights.

The United States, Israel and some of their allies accuse Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear program and have used this pretext to push for four rounds of UN sanctions and a series of unilateral sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

Iran has refuted the allegations, arguing that as a committed signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it has the right to use nuclear technology for peaceful use.
