(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Answering a question on recent remarks made by the French President Nicolas Sarkozy about Iran's nuclear and missile programs, Hassan Tajik added on Thursday that Iran's nuclear program was totally peaceful.
The official said International Atomic Energy Agency's reports have confirmed peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program.
He said: “Any remark based on unrealistic data can provide grounds for destabilization of the region and we recommend that such remarks be avoided.”
Sarkozy had warned on Wednesday that Iran's alleged attempts to build long-range missiles and “nuclear weapons” could lead unnamed countries to launch a pre-emptive attack.
Sarkozy's accusations against Iran comes as the IAEA has conducted numerous inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities but has never found any evidence indicating that Iran's civilian nuclear program has been diverted to nuclear weapons production.
