'West must end biased nuclear stance'
Iranian Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad-Najjar says the West needs to put an end to its selective approach concerning the nuclear issue.
“Global powers should stop their double standards regarding the use of nuclear technology,” Mohammad-Najjar said at a news conference in Oman on Monday.
“Hegemonic powers allow the Zionist regime [of Israel] to stockpile nuclear weapons while seeking to deny peaceful nuclear activities to a country such as Iran,” he added.
Mohammad-Najjar further pointed out that using peaceful nuclear technology is Iran's inalienable right, adding that Tehran's nuclear program is under the full supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Iran supports the idea of nuclear technology for all, but nuclear weapons for none, the Iranian official went on to say.
According to the minister, Iranophobia is a failed policy pursued by the United States, aimed at sowing discord between Iran and regional countries.
“Iranophobia is a threadbare policy by the US … which calls Iran a threat to regional countries … in order to create divisions between Iran and other countries.”
He also emphasized that such policies are doomed to fail since the Islamic Republic has maintained friendly relations with all its neighbors.
