The IAEA has accepted that there has remained no other question on Iran's Fordo nuclear site, Iranian ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Ali Asghar Soltanieh said, ISNA reported.
"The IAEA's recent report differs from previous ones. Investigations are underway and the inspectors have accepted that there has remained no specific question about Fordo nuclear facility," Soltanieh said.
He added, "Iran has handed required information on centrifuges which are to be installed in Fordo nuclear site to the IAEA and the agency confirmed our remarks after receiving the information."
"We have been responsible to hand further information to the agency and inform it in case of any changes on the installation, since we have informed the IAEA of Fordo installation."
He noted, "We have faced no problem with the IAEA inspectors so far. Visits are underway regularly and under the clarified framework. Off Course, the IAEA is cooperating with us as well."
Iranian envoy to the agency continued, "We will open talks with the IAEA if it respects Iran's considerations."
"We will not enter into the main discussion to answer ambiguities until we have not reached the primary agreement. We should wait to see the IAEA's position on Iran's issue," he told ISNA.
As to Iran's expectations from the IAEA about cooperation on removing ambiguities, Soltanieh added, "All the discussions aim at normalizing Iran's nuclear case in IAEA."
"It has always proved all claims and smear campaigns run by the US on Iran's military sites were unfounded. We believe that other accusations and claims follow the same end," Soltanieh noted as being asked on Iran's expected framework for eliminating the IAEA ambiguities based on probable military aspects in Iran's nuclear issue.
As to the IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano's position on Iranian nuclear issue, he continued, "Amano's positions are negative and out of normal routine which caused Iran's severe and obvious reaction, although Iran was reluctant to show such reactions."
"Western countries particularly the US and its sponsors have always tried to change the IAEA to a subcategory of the UN under the excuse of Iran's issue and they have done such acts before including the additional protocol in 1990s on Iraq and North Korea," Iran's envoy noted.
Soltanieh went on to say, "In my meetings with the General Director he has assured me to be moderate in his reports. He once divided his report to two parts, one on Iran's commitments in the framework of Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons Treaty (NPT) and the other out of that framework, but on his later reports he turned to his previous approach."
"We will cooperate with the IAEA as a member state, but we will choose confrontation if the IAEA measures and reports would be against Iran's interests," he added as he expressed hope IAEA Director General and staff would be impartial.
Soltanieh continued, " We are ready to define another modality providing that the IAEA and the Director General respects the agreements based on the 2007 modality and move under the defined framework and pay heed to Iran's security considerations."
