Expert Asks US To Adopt Positive Approach Toward Iran’s N-program

Islamabad, April 23, IRNA – Renowned Pakistani lawyer and politician has urged Washington to adopt positive approach towards Iran’s peaceful nuclear program and respect Islamic Republic’s right to peaceful nuclear technology. Talking to IRNA S M Zafar, said that US must not take steps which can damage Iran-5+1 interim nuclear deal. He added that Iran is a peace-loving country and has assured the world that its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes. He added that Iran, being signatory to Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), has a right to pursue nuclear program like any other country in the world. Former Senator viewed that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) must facilitate Iranˈs nuclear activities. He said that Iran has described the development and use of nuclear weapons as un-Islamic so there is no justification left for western states to doubt about Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities. He added that it is good that ice has started melting and the talks between Iran and G5+1 are moving forward. The human rights activist said that Iran is fully cooperating with the IAEA and has no ambition to stop cooperation with the international nuclear watchdog. He stressed the need for lifting the illegal sanctions against Iran as a trust building measure./end
