a little heavy weights but iran is standing firm refusing to justify its atomic program press and other western countries say tehran is using it as an excuse to develop nuclear weapons. for staying with iran and its nuclear program up next and all the talk of the uranium boss of the international atomic energy agency he addresses european and american fears over tomic around. hungry for the full story we've got it for. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. how again a welcome to spotlight they interview show on. today by guest in the studio is highly as got

a soul title iran's nuclear program has been that headache for the rest of the world for decades year after year terror and has been saying it's personal peaceful girls but many in the world fear these climate republic may be fostering plans of building nuclear warheads so what's cooking in iran's nuclear kitchen will be hearing about it from the man who represents iran in the end atomic energy agency highly touted. iran says it needs to enrich its own uranium for a few lng its nuclear power stations and other peaceful purposes after failing to meet international obligations in the end imposed sanctions on the country four years ago they banned any uranium related corporation between tyrant and other countries and made the i.e.e.e. spectrum's all the wrongs nucleus sides mandatory two years ago france and russia offered to enrich uranium for terrence power plants even though the offer was
3:33 am
welcomed by the international community iran turned it down now after years of argument and counter-argument the parties are in istanbul to once again try and come to a compromise over iran's nuclear ambitions. and thank you very much for being with us on the show my pleasure well at first of all i want to start from a recent coup out. when you sent i quote the january twenty one twenty two meeting could be the last chance for major powers to strike a deal could you specify would it mean by a last chance are you threatening the major powers and and do you mean that that if the negotiations fail this will be it gives first of all a pleasure to be with you have to clarify that was as a rather nice coating then i had a discussion with media and some intellectuals in paris and in fact i was not
3:34 am
relating what i said to the negotiation. wall or allow for us when i thought i was referring to negotiation in vienna on terror our decision react or then i said i repeat here that you notice that did the negotiation in october two thousand and nine was not conclude there and therefore we had no option down to continue and make our twenty percent up to twenty percent fuel for our own and up to know roughly forty kilogram have been produced and that we don't need to wait and did a one hundred twenty kilogram is all produce as long as soon as the first fuel rod is ready and each and putting the core of terror on reactor or then we do not have that much justification to come a negotiation. russia u.s. and france in vienna any more for terrorists or actor because we can produce
3:35 am
ourselves what do we need to come to them and according to what agreed to send some material to turkey one thousand two hundred kilograms therefore i said that the time is running therefore they better use this opportunity and to come to the negotiating table before it's too late that is what exactly i'm saying and i want to say that until now that i'm talking to you right now face to face is still of the teheran declaration which we agreed as a compromise is on the table. well ahead of the istanbul talks terror and has organized a trip for foreign diplomats a tour inside two of the nuclear sites well however the major powers russia china and the european union have refused the story saying that that the inspectors from the i am a should should be there and they should verify whether the iran's program is peaceful or now do you agree with the position of russia china and the first
3:36 am
position of russia and china was different from their position of e.u. that was the e.u. that they said that you better invite the specters which was unjustified because already inspectors are almost every day now based on our activities and commitment on that n.p.t. in fact during this visit of ambassadors last week which i was there with them the ok generally by coincidence or this break they're doing their job this. visit of some diplomats to the i.a.e.a. is completed do it do different things russians are asking to postpone it but rick because we had already planned and many ambassadors prefer this time therefore if you could in their post want there were one thing is one do we have to make a distinction between visiting of ambassadors to the i.a.e.a. which always discuss this matter you nyad they better have a big good feeling and this specters are doing it on technical joe you you say
3:37 am
either the inspectors are there almost have your say but as far as i know from the press from what. politicians say it's iran's a refusal to comply with previous year's security council resolutions to allow full inspection of your atomic sites this was the reason that convinced for example russia and china to back up the sanctions so when will. iran be ready to to to fully open its sites who inspection i one hundred percent of the due respect disagree with you because you have to make a distinction again between the spec sharon and our obligation and that the n.p.t. and those requests the. united security council v are fully cooperating with the i.a.e.a. under the n.p.t. and by now four thousand man day special has been made in iran which is
3:38 am
unprecedented in the history of i.a.e.a. what you were really fairing however was there the question of security council resolution to suspend to a stop these activities of a rich man or heavy water reactor a construction which is in not a legally binding in fact with no legal basis and this we cannot of course do that because this enrichment is one hundred percent under the control and surveillance cameras of i.e. and therefore we cannot find any justification in fact with the press conference a minute ago i was explaining for a reason why the security council resolutions have no legal basis first of all according to a set your the article for twelve c. only these issues should be sent to new york security council if the inspectors ical denies non-compliant as reporting to director general and then director general report to the board of governors however any case of iran even france
3:39 am
germany u.k. with the support of the us in fact pushed it politically and they did decided to send this matter to new york it was contradiction with this statute and also i remind you that the care in the cases like for example north korea if the inspectors are not needed to the county according to statute then this issue should be to center new york but in the case of iran all live ports of director general for light is a eight years the director general has said that we are able to. continue our inspection and there is no evidence of diversion because of these reasons and since that is solutions that have passed even by e.u. treaty sais that this suspect was not legally binding and volunteer because of these for reasons that is illusions of security glance or have no legal basis we will not implemented a year x. and say you know when or listen to to talks to two to. negotiations between iran and the western world i get the impression that it resembles
3:40 am
a famous beatles song you remember you say goodbye i say hello you say yes i said no i say black you say white but some people may get the same impression and start start singing the song listening to our interview so. is this all about words is it all about propaganda is it all about making news or is it about nuclear safety i mean the iranian you are a new issue can you be frank and say and say yes or no or simply of course i'm not going to give any comment about the go shares but one thing is clear that v.m.s. spared no effort to prove to the whole world has our nuclear activities are exclusively for peaceful purposes. as i said many of you who will believe you know that that is the problem that i think that through you i want to tell the whole war over one hundred twenty countries men have without any interruption for the last
3:41 am
eight years supported iran and their statement is documented in die as the part of the he story pages of the story therefore the international community majority of the members of the whole war have supported and these are the ambassadors which accompanied me in the well in the percentage of over one hundred twenty counties have continued to support it only for your counties of assent countries they also claim and give allegations they are not. representing international community please we have to be careful about using the international community the majority of the whole war or have always supported iran and i can see that if he were peaceful and we have they have inquired as and fully cooperating we die yet only a few western counties they want to use i.e. as a tool in order to dictate from new york to vienna what to do what from washington to need to vienna what to do and we are preventing them to do it because i am
3:42 am
independent organisation that is exactly what you want to could distinguish between these two we would continue our cooperation be done fully cooperating in accordance with our nuclear activities and obligation therefore we have to distinguish that everything is hundred percent transparent and you cannot find anywhere in the whole war that would accept inviting visiting and embassador of different countries and media to our nuclear stages everything is hundred percent transpired well let's get back to the upcoming the o.c.a. shoes you as you put it lately i quote iran will sit at the negotiating table only when there is no precondition this is a principle of iran and quote that's right. a few days ago after you said that your president ahmadinejad's said i quote again how can an agreement be reached as long as there are sanctions and quote will the lifting of sanctions is iran's own precondition so are you are you against preconditions or not wait
3:43 am
a minute you have to distinguish the fact that we have always said isn't a policy of cateau tennis the science channel negotiations in principle is wrong and nobody can accept that it has been it has been on this globe for for for for a century now that we we have this is our things that this is an uncivilized no colonialism mentality and we have to confront this mentality isn't it the way we bring up her kids i mean the carrot and stick no no no no no no because that when we shouldn't do it out of the. does it really isn't there that are we doing it every day if we are doing the announcing us because and i think you see it for me when confront this kind of mentality and that is why if you remember years back they were saying they were saying that iran should suspend then we would start negotiation he didn't accept any precondition that was a precondition but we are ready as our president and our top officials have always said to negotiate with the mitchell to speak without condition and it says i leave i was got a sole tiny iran's permanent ambassador to the international atomic energy agency
3:44 am
spotlight we'll be back shortly after a break so stay with us we'll continue in less than a minute and it with. repairing a broken link should. tell you a construction and humanitarian aid. but it's a shady official who spoke at the spoils of war it's the people who pay the price. for satiric he is no longer just down to drug trafficking. afghanistan the dollar.
3:45 am
welcome back to spawn flight i'm alvin often just to remind you that my guest in the studio today is highly as got ten he says iran's permanent about. so the international atomic energy agency you know. you said that you ran is not going to develop a nuclear bomb a nuclear weapon and you said you have good reasons for that i mean not yours but the country can you explain because all i've heard so far is that. there may facilities are for peaceful means but there may be theoretically used for
3:46 am
military purposes now you're putting it differently please elaborate the founder of revolution lake the man khomeini always twenty five years ago and in the new york asians if elected the the horrible aspects of there is no clear their plan and in fact in one of these statement called the people intellectuals writers and scientists to enlightened people so that they can all prize about their nuclear weapon at that time off to a super bowl as and try to destroy this nuclear weapon and our prayer president right now the supreme leader has in many occasions also conceded this one religiously forbidden and into any. mass destruction including nuclear weapon but i want to today give another reason that i hope you and your distinguished years would be nice convinced you are not is that we are negotiating with five plus one it means five power nuclear power where you have
3:47 am
a nuclear weapons we are negotiating and we said we are negotiating with mutual respect and equal footing it means that you can sit at our sell it call power with other people have a nuclear weapon in order to discuss global and regional issues of the whole word now let's assume getting the best scenario we would go to a nuclear weapon how many nuclear weapon we can make could we ever be able to compete with the twenty seven thousand warheads of these people. i want five countries we cannot therefore up there they would be in of decomposition the balance of power would be in the out of the said vantage it could be advantage i believe to forty iran but there are four with the nuclear vapor we are it could power have equal power with the five days therefore this is a strategic mistake to go to a nuclear weapon in fact it power and the strengths of iran comes not from nuclear weapon it comes from the those principles ensuring that
3:48 am
a currency to share for example one of the principle is the east and in labor rights for nuclear energy or any technology and nobody can do it get this right i'm sure that nobody can do it get this right from your people or now people is impossible the second important point is no compromise on this principle therefore principle and no compromise on those principle at any price has given us a strength which is more common for the nuclear weapon do you think it is possible for a country to have an air fleet to have airplanes to build airplanes and not have new truth here. is it it doesn't make sense why you see you do need to in order to defend yourself you don't need to have weapons of mass destruction mass destruction you need to conventional weapons that is why we have in and in many cases have said we want if you want and we will have a stronger military in fact protégé shools convention and what of labor party
3:49 am
issues in order to defend ourselves but you know there's a way that we defended eight years in poor do suspects and not only you do suspect that israel has nuclear weapons not only suspect the president of course that is a high park or see in fact the policy in his regime for the last decade because they say that they have it but at the same time to deny it i want to remind you that the former prime minister wal-mart and now study have it and did ambassador that a president of the in vienna denied it and therefore i asked mr brady former director general to send a fact finding mission and the pay for my name is said to be israel to know whether an automatic was right or dead ambassadors are to die therefore i want to say of course what is threatening the security of regional security and global security is the nuclear dependability a nuclear weapon of design is regime in the middle east the are always supporting middle east feeds own from any mass destruction dependent clued in nuclear do you
3:50 am
think the issue of israeli nuclear possible nuclear weapons and israel will be discussed at the at the meeting. coming negotiations and i will not say any comment on what they would be discussing but we have already said that in this negotiation we are. going to discuss about the ways and means for remove the concerns in the last meeting in geneva our delegation raising concerns about disarmament about the number of ration and the issue of in fact nuclear of many. nuclear vipan in a deployed in europe is right in nuclear capability all these concern have been reflected of course one of the serious concern that we have at the same time we have these potential cooperating to take care of international and global problems and iran as a great potential to cooperate with other partners in order to have solutions but i
3:51 am
want to say that israeli nuclear capability is a real serious potential threat and that is why we had resolution in general conference that is why you have been sober on that is allusions in the i.a.e.a. expressing deep concern about nuclear capability israel more than that you have notice that israelis have continued to threaten to attack iran is not the installation which is in contravention to did is illusion five three three which iran proposed in one thousand nine hundred fact i prepared it and it was adopted according to that resolution any attack or threat of attack against nuclear installations during an operation or a kind of construction is a violation of united nations charter statute and international law and united is going to classes should act immediately therefore this is a pity united nations security council is keeping silent as they this is and for this is very disappointing for tony you have been more than once criticizing the
3:52 am
confrontation policy of your negotiation partners but recently hillary clinton admitted that i quote iran can enrich uranium for civilian purposes at some future date once it has demonstrated it can do so in a reasonable manner and in accordance with its international obligations and quote iran can enrich uranium do you see these words of the state secretary as a breakthrough in the u.s. position well i have to say that after eight years and also after years of. involvement of united nations security council. and i expect that they have come to conclusion that they have miscalculated that they have to reconsider whatever they have done so on and they have to cope themselves with their reality again reality is iran is master of enrichment technology and also the reality is that iran will not suspend its cooperation be die a and everything is under the full control of
3:53 am
i.a.e.a. an international organization which is related to that therefore having set so knowing that everything is hundred twenty percent transparent and exclusive of peaceful purposes therefore they cannot ask through either solution or any way to us iran to suspend this is absolutely impossible and not logical therefore let's hope that all change the gear from confrontation to cooperation will i once again getting back to the to these to rule adjourned in may two thousand and ten the last year the worst of the countries rejected. agreements with turkey and brazil on low enrich uranium fuel can this particular agreement be renegotiated this later this week i have to say that this is of course a pity because i was at the head of the legation negotiation with delegations from russia u.s. and france. over two thousand and nine forward if you would for turn our decision i
3:54 am
am to send person that requested over twenty years ago in fact when i was ambassador in i.e. asking dr hans blix to ask the fuel for terrorist act and we got the fuel from argentina this time the via expected to say way to give them money to pay for it and get a few now they are put to condition therefore body in order to prove to the whole international community davi i have a political will in order to shore up transparency and to give confidence that this material is useful and the only preserve as is based on terror on declaration with the initiative of brazil and turkey. good friends the accepted to make another compromise it means to give one thousand two hundred kilograms send it to turkey so that we would be c one hundred twenty kilograms up to twenty percent enrichment therefore terror on declaration is a historical compromise and as now i am talking to you maybe later would be to change this proposal and ted on declaration is still on the table. your
3:55 am
nuclear program ruse nuclear program has been making news last year early this year and as a target of sabotage well experts believe that attempts on the lives of scientists nuclear scientists and also and also the computer virus of the bushehr plant they. caused a two year low in iran's nuclear program that you had two years behind schedule already is that true i can assure you of that divide of says exists different damage to different computers in the whole word but there are anti virus is also and if people should show maximum ledger lines to protect their activities i can assure you that this virus has not been able to effect a centrifuge is deceptive you just which were visited by ambassadors of recently they so i get organized that all of them are working and they are rotating one thousand locations per second without any problem regarding of course as
3:56 am
a summation of the nuclear scientists and terrorist activities this is the ugliest safire naaman out that we are facing and i am sure they all public of the word and the scientists of the whole world should deplore this kind of the ugly to phenomena and prevent such a thing to occur because the scientists of any country are the war terry cage of all words they belong to the whole humanity and therefore this matter is in fact a nuclear terrorist who can consider going to pursuit his mouth in vienna as a matter of serious concern for all sides. he's a nuclear scientist particularly in all in all countries including yours or any countries they should be protected and this in fact. act against humanity should should be fact prevented and deplored thank you thank you very much you're actually saying just a reminder that my guest today was dr ali asghar soltanieh iran's permanent
3:57 am
