Hans Blix: Iran has neither nuclear weapon nor seeks it
Hans Blix, former director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and former head of the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission searching Iraq for weapons of mass destruction in an interview said Iran has neither nuclear weapon nor seeks it. By Ahmad Amini Q: Mr. Blix, let's start with the new round of nuclear talks between Iran and P5+1 - the five permanent members of the UN Security Council (United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia, and China) plus Germany. The two sides started nuclear talks in an atmosphere in a relatively tense atmosphere. According to the released comments, the two sides are satisfied with the general results of the negotiations. Q: The West particularly the United States highlighting their concerns about Iran's nuclear program have been all the time seeking the full suspension of its uranium enrichment and let me say an end to Iran's nuclear program in the nuclear talks. As a nuclear expert, please explain how this view could help the two parties reach a pragmatic and sustainable agreement. Q: Although unconfirmed rumors went around ahead of Istanbul talks that the United States called for the closure of Fordo nuclear site, Iran would not be expected to accept the demand. To me, "constructive interaction", and a "win-win deal" are possible when the two sides put aside their What do you refer to when talking about double standard? Is that Israel? Specifically Israel. A: Of course, this is a case that Iran can always underline. Iran has signed the NPT and on the other hand there is no evidence to reveal that Iran has nuclear weapons. I would like to repeat a point I mentioned in a university meeting earlier. I, as a retired weapons expert, believe that Iran neither has nuclear weapons, nor seeks to build nukes. Some of Iran's activities might have raised suspicion, but its program has not been diverted to the development of nuclear bombs. And finally, all things should not be to the advantage of a party and to the disadvantage of the other party. | ||
