TEHRAN, Nov 22 (NNN-IRNA) – Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Nasser Kanaani, dismissed yesterday, a recent resolution approved by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), saying, it was “anti-Iran” and “politically motivated.”
The spokesman said, during the weekly press conference that, Iran expects the IAEA to avoid “political actions” and allow Iran’s cooperation with the international nuclear watchdog to continue, so that both sides can achieve “good results.”
Kanaani added, Iran’s nuclear activities “has been under the agency’s supervision, and the IAEA has carried out most inspections on Iran’s nuclear activities.”
Last week, IAEA’s Board of Governors passed a resolution, proposed by the U.S., UK, France, and Germany, calling on Iran to cooperate with the IAEA’s investigators, regarding the alleged “traces of uranium” at a number of its “undeclared” sites. Iran has rejected the allegations.
