Iran-Ahmadinejad-Nuclear
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad here Wednesday said that Iran is willing to hold talks on its nuclear issue but that it will not give up its inalienable right to access nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.
Speaking at a gathering of people in the provincial town of Shabestar, the chief executive said that Iran neither approves of tyranny nor does it ever tolerate bullying.
"This is the logic of monotheists and worshipers of God Almighty, according to which we are bound to defend people's rights. Meanwhile, the Iranian nation will not give up its inalienable right.
"We are prepared to talk about the nuclear issue, but will by no means negotiate our inalienable right with any party ," he added.
Ahmadinejad said that Iran is ready to negotiate and cooperate with the world community in all fields and underlined that talks should be held in a fair atmosphere.
"Today, the nation has been availed with a historical opportunity to construct Iran, which should be used properly to build up a powerful country.
"Owing to the vigilance and resistance of the nation, Iran is now one of the countries having access to nuclear cycle and will use it to develop the country," said the president.
He said that the Iranian nation is bound to construct a developed and powerful Iran, adding that this will only be materialized under the light of unity, affection, reliance on God Almighty and work.
The president condemned the crimes of the Zionist regime in the occupied lands and said that martyrdom of Palestinian women, children and youth by the Zionists has made Hitler look tame.
