TEHRAN (ISNA)- Spokesman of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Behrouz Kamalvandi said that Iran has held talks with 3-4 countries on selling heavy water.
"The heavy water sold is now on the way and would reach the US next month," he said.
"We delivered a 32 tone consignment of heavy water to the US a few days ago. We attached an
amendment to our agreement. We delivered the consignment after we received the cash because of
their unreliability and concerns we had."
He said that the heavy water can be used for different purposes, including power plants and
research projects, and Iran has held talks with 3-4 countries.
Kamalvandi said that Iran included other countries in the negotiations because it could find alternative
countries in case US failed to buy heavy water since the US Congress has banned purchase from Iran.
