Local Editor

Iranˈs Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency [IAEA] Ali Asghar Soltanieh reiterated Thursday that his country is committed to continue talks with the agency to resolve the remaining issues.

Speaking in reaction to the new report released by the IAEA on Iranˈs peaceful nuclear program, he underlined continuation of negotiations between Tehran and IAEA in a peaceful, non-political environment.

"The main message of new report by IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano is the fact that there has been no evidence of deviation from peaceful nuclear activities in Iranˈs nuclear program after a decade," the top Iranian negotiator stated.
Soltanieh added that according to the IAEA report, Iranˈs 20 percent enriched Uranium have been used for the production of radio isotopes in Tehranˈs research reactor.

Earlier, Soltaniyeh revealed that in last Wednesdayˈs talks between Iran and the IAEA in Tehran, the two sides succeeded in obviating some differences and agreed to continue their negotiations in future.
"Some differences of opinion were solved, some modality articles were approved, and it was decided that the new proposals made would be surveyed and the results would be reported at next session," Soltaniyeh said on Wednesday night.
The date for next round of talks between the two sides has not been set as yet.
