Asefi lauds Iran`s stand on nuclear energy

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Feb 10, IRNA -- Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi 
here on Thursday termed Tehran`s stand regarding nuclear energy issue 
as wise. 
Asefi who was among participants in the rallies marking the 26th 
anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution told IRNA that 
the Islamic Republic of Iran has never been after development of 
nuclear weapons. 
Tehran will do all within its diplomatic potentials to hold 
negotiations with other countries on the issue, he added. 
The main reason behind the US hostility towards the Islamic 
Republic is that Washington`s hegemonic policy was resisted in Iran 
and the Mideast region, Asefi noted. 
He further reiterated that the victory of the 1979 Islamic 
Revolution in Iran proved to the Muslim nations that they could 
resist against oppressive policies of the despotic regimes. 
Asefi said that wise leadership of the Father of the Islamic 
Revolution, the late Imam Khomeini, active presence of all people in 
all aspects of the revolution and carrying out Islamic teachings were 
three reasons behind the triumph of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.
