Iran's Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Ali-Asghar Soltaniyeh, said here Monday that negotiations are still underway, stressing the door to resolve the case has not been closed.

Soltaniyeh told IRNA on the sidelines of the winter session of the IAEA Board of Governors: We have presented our proposal to the European states and Russia. "They should think about it. We are waiting for their reaction."
"We can show no flexibility on nuclear research. It is the right of any country that its scientists will conduct research," he said.

The Iranian envoy said, "It is impossible for Iran to suspend its research and development because the previous resolution of the IAEA (were) passed following Tehran's research studies.

"We will continue research and development, on the other hand, ready to discuss issues, we will do our best to prove our cooperation was positive and our nuclear program is civilian," he added.
