Mirdamadi terms IAEA resolution against Iran as `unacceptable`

IRNA

Tehran, Sept 16, IRNA -- French Ambassador to Tehran Francois 
Nicouloud conferred here Tuesday with Head of Parliamentary Commission
for National Security and Foreign Affairs Mohsen Mirdamadi on recent 
IAEA Board of Governors resolution against the Islamic Republic of 
Iran. 
At the meeting, Mirdamadi termed the recent decision taken by the 
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) against Iran as 
unacceptable. 
According to the Cultural and Public Relations Department of the 
Majlis, Mirdamadi voiced satisfaction over the current level of 
relations between Iran and France and called for further expansion 
and deepening of bilateral ties mainly on parliamentary level. 
Lambasting the recent IAEA resolution on Iran`s nuclear energy, he
said turning the issues of disputes in foreign policy into prestigious
ones would only make the situation more complicated. 
The recent UN resolution has mentioned a number of cases which are
beyond the NPT authorization and is not in conformity to the terms of 
the treaty, he said. 
None of the political wings in Iran accept such dealings, he 
declared. 
Referring to the policy of trust-building between Iran and Europe,
he said the IAEA`s regular inspection along with close cooperation 
with Europe can help further boost and bolster ties in line with 
peaceful application of nuclear energy in Iran. 
On recent developments in Iraq, Mirdamadi lauded France`s position
on the issue and said under supervision of the UN, the Iraqi 
government should be established without interference of the 
foreigners. 
The French ambassador, for his part, underlined the close views 
between the two countries on developments in Iraq and expressed regret
over martyrdom of Ayatollah Hakim and said the UN should be considered
as a base to monitor Iraq`s developments. 
On recent IAEA resolution on Iran, he said peaceful application of
nuclear energy is Iran`s legitimate right. 
In conclusion, he underlined further expansion of parliamentary 
ties between the two countries.
