Moscow, Sept 25, IRNA -- Russian President Vladimir Putin declared 
on Friday that he was "convinced that Iran does not need nuclear 
weapons. 
"With them in possession, none of the problems confronting 
Iran, including the security issues in the region, can be solved," 
said Putin in response to a question at the ongoing World Congress of 
News Agencies` conference.

nuclear states and believe that Iran should meet the IAEA demands 
halfway with regard to all the positions set forth by that 
organization," said the president.
