Rowhani: US has created difficulty for Iran`s nuclear program

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, March 7, IRNA -- Secretary of the Supreme National Security 
Council (SNSC) Hassan Rowhani said on Sunday that the United States 
has created difficulty for Iran`s national nuclear program. 
Speaking at the 11th meeting of the Assembly of Experts, he said 
that despite Iran being a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty 
(NPT), the United States has raised international concern about the 
recycling of fuel in Iranian nuclear facilities. 
He made it clear that the entire objective the United States is 
pursuing is to protect its monopoly in the nuclear industry. 
He called on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to drop
Iran from the agenda of the board of governors given Iran`s signature 
on additional protocol to NPT and granting free access to inspectors 
of the specialized agency of the United Nations. 
Rowhani further demanded the international agency pave the way for
Iran`s entry to the international club of nuclear states in view of 
its national program to generate electricity from nuclear energy.
