CIA dictated new IAEA report on Iran

'It is unbalanced, unprofessional and politically motivated' :

Iran: An Iranian lawmaker says the latest report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Iran's nuclear case has been dictated by the Central Intelligence Agency.

Member of the Majlis (parliament) National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Mahmoud Ahmadi Bighash told IRNA on Wednesday that the latest IAEA report proved that the nuclear agency has no authority to act on its own and only serves US and Israeli interests.

The Iranian lawmaker said that the IAEA must work within the framework of a legal system.

However, the new report issued on Iran's nuclear program runs contrary to IAEA obligations and commitments.

He stressed that international organizations have originally been formed to defend the rights of nations. Nonetheless, they have failed in their primary objectives, and are now at the disposal of certain states.

IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano's latest report on Iran's nuclear activities was given to the 35 members of the Board of Governors Tuesday evening, ahead of the seasonal meeting of the board, which is scheduled to be held in Vienna from November 17 to 18.

Iran dismissed the report as "unbalanced, unprofessional and prepared with political motivation and under political pressure mostly by the US."

The United States, Israel, and some of their allies accuse Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear program. However, as a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the IAEA, Iran says it has the right to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

In addition, the IAEA has conducted numerous inspections of Iranian nuclear facilities but has never found any evidence indicating that Iran's civilian nuclear program has been diverted towards nuclear weapons production. Perss TV
