hello this is r t it's half past eleven here in moscow the saturnine these are all top stories the lawyer of an alleged russian arms dealer big to boot is about to challenge the galatea of his u.s. trial the man in the west is labeled the merchant of death as having scored a date set for september. demonstrators in norway take to the streets to stop people to a russian born immigrant protesters say is an asset to society that the money the government reviews the country's immigration rules. and world powers failed to generate a solution to the nuclear stalemate in istanbul next round of talks failed to come up with an agreement or set a date for any future negotiations. with iran that was our. america's

fears to the country's envoy to the new u.n. nuclear watchdog. hello again or welcome to spotlight they interview show. today my guest in the studio is highly as that of soul tyler. iran's nuclear program has been the headache for the rest of the world for decades year after year terror and has been saying it's personal peace for 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 would be hearing about it from the man who represents iran in the end atomic energy agency highly sometimes.

iran says it needs to reach its own uranium fueling its nuclear power stations and other peaceful purposes after failing to meet international obligations to reanimate post sanctions on the country four years ago they banned any uranium related corporation between tyrant and other countries and maybe i spec sions 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 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. how mrs litany and thank you very much for being with us on the show my pleasure well i first of all i want to start from

a recent quote when you said. the january twenty one twenty two meeting could be the last chance for major powers to strike a deal. could you specify i wouldn't 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 some intellectuals in paris in fact i was not relating what i said to the negotiation down war live for us when i thought i was referring to negotiation in vienna on terror our decision reactor 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 now 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 we can put it into a quart of tehran reactor or then we do not have that much justification to come a negotiation from russia u.s. and france in vienna any more for terrorists as reactor because we can produce 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 dinner go shooting 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 to as

a compromise is on the table mr well ahead of the istanbul talks terror and has organized a trip for foreign diplomats a tour inside to. two of the nuclear sites well however the major powers russia china and the european union have refused this truce 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 not do you agree with the position of russia china and the first 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 inspectors which was unjustified because already inspectors are almost every day now based on activities and commitment under n.p.t. in fact during this visit of ambassadors last week which i was there with them the ok generally by coincidence saw this specter doing their job this is

a the specs and visit of some diplomas 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 we 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 dismantling nyad a bit and have a big good feeling and these specters are doing their own technical job you use 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 for inspection i one hundred percent dividual 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. of united for 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 unprecedented would be 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 on a richmond or heavy water reactor a construction which is a not a legally binding in fact without no legal basis and this we cannot of course do that because this enrichment is one hundred percent under control and surveillance with the cameras of i.a.e.a.

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 this issue should be sent to new york security council if the inspectors ical denies noncom play as reporting to director general and then director george report to the board of governors however any case of iran even france germany u.k. with the support of the us in fact pushed it politically and they the 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 permitted to the conti according to statute then this issue should be to center new york but in the case of iran all live reports of director general for a 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. mention was not legally binding and volunteer because of these forty says it is illusions of security ganser have no legal basis we will not implemented your ex and so you know when the listen to two talks to two to. the ocean between iran and the western world i get that impression that it resembles the famous beatle song you remember you say goodbye i say hello you say yes i said no i say black you say white but some people need to 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 sympathy here of course i'm not going to give any comment about the go shares but one thing is clear that the un is 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 eight years supported iran and their statement is documented in die as the part of the history pages of the story therefore the international community majority of the member state of the whole war have supported and these are the ambassadors which accompanied me in the well in the present to be well over one hundred twenty countries have continued to support that only for your counties of western 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 or or have always supported iran. i can see that iran looked active were peaceful and we have they have inquired as and fully cooperate and we die you only a few western countries they want yours i year as a tool in order to dictate from new york to vienna what to do or from washington to need to vienna what to do and we are preventing them to do it because i am independent organisation that is exactly what you want to could distinguish between these two we would continue our corporation when he cooperated 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 embassador of different countries and media to our nuclear stages everything is hundred percent transparent 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 a minute you have to distinguish the fact that we have over a say isn't a policy of cateau tennis the sanction and negotiation in principle is wrong and nobody can accept that it has been it has been on this globe for for for for centuries if we we have this is how things are 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 no no we shouldn't

do that because i was not really isn't there that we don't know if we are doing we are sinners because one of the heroes you sit down for me will confront this kind of mentality and that is why if you are. remember years back they were say they were saying that iran should suspend then we will start negotiation didn't accept any condition that was a precondition but we are ready as our president and our top office i've always said to negotiate with mitchell to speak without condition and it says i lee i was got a full ten year iran's permanent ambassador to the international atomic energy agency spotlight will be back shortly after a break so stay with us we'll continue in less than a minute and it was. hungry for the full story we've got it from. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers on the.

very first verses of the bible that all human beings are created but sentimental came in god's image and it doesn't say just jews are not under. sixty to seventy percent of what i did as a combat soldier not to buy territory was to do with the turds doing what we call making our presence felt to go out should somebody so they hear a knock on some doors run to the other corner and they don't know how religion and nationalism not just judaism have been a part of the problem they've been part of what leads to. bloodshed if you want to bomb and kill. a thousand four hundred people in a month and you want to expect that this will have no effect on the feet you have to be either extremely naive or extremely stupid. you're a religious jew calling another jew and not the way they really did it.

the closer to his being to the. return to the land developed by cossacks in ancient times. now wattie goes to the center of russian defense production. with christianity and shamanism existed side by side for centuries. people in remote villages cut off from the basics please take for granted. completely like russia close up on r.t. . walking back to spawn flight i'm outgrowing often just a reminder that my guest in the studio today is i leave as god soltani says iran's

permanent ambassador to the international atomic energy agency yourself well you said that your round is not going to develop a nuclear bomb a nuclear weapon and you said you have good reasons for that i mean not you but the country can you explain because all i've heard so far is that. there may the facilities are for peaceful means but then maybe theoretically used for military purposes now you're putting it differently please elaborate the founder of revolution lately mark khomeini always twenty five years ago and in new york asians if elected the the horrible aspects of this nuclear weapon and in fact in one of these statement called the people intellectuals writers and scientists to enlighten the people so that they can all prize about their nuclear weapon at that

time off to a superpower as and try to destroy this nuclear weapon and our president right now the supreme leader has in many occasions also conceded. this one religiously forbidden and you know and he can in fact the mass destruction including nuclear weapons but i want to today give another reason that i hope you and your distinguish yours would be convinced you know it is that we are negotiating the five plus one it means five power nuclear power there you have a nuclear weapons we are negotiating and he said we are negotiating with mutual respect and equal footing it means that you can sit at our sell it cause power with other people have a nuclear weapon in order to discuss global and regional issues of the whole word now unless it assumed as an investor now do you 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 p.

five hundred five countries we cannot therefore are up there they would be in heavy can position the balance of power it would be in get out of the segment as it could be had volunteered ability for iraq but therefore with the nuclear vapor we are it could power. 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 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 delete get this right i'm sure that nobody can do it get this right from your people are not people is in principle the second important point is no compromise on this pretty simple therefore principle and no compromise on those principle at any price has given us a strength which is more common for done nuclear weapons 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 have you do need to in order to defend yourself you don't need to have the pens are must rush 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 potentials convention and what if we will put issues in order to defend our serve but you know there's a way that we defend at 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 c. in fact the policy in the decision made for the last decade because they say that they have it but at the same time begin tonight i want to remind you that the former prime minister wal-mart and now study have you and dave ambassador that

a president of the in vienna denied it and therefore i asked mr bright the former director general to send a fact finding mission and the pay for facts my name is said to be israel to know where all the might 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 we are always supporting middle east feeds own from any mass destruction dependent clued in nuclear do you think the issue of israeli nuclear possible nuclear weapons in 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 removed concerns in the last meeting in geneva our delegation raising concerns about

disarmament about the issue of 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 deflected 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 want to say that is right in nuclear capability is a real serious potential threat and that is why we had resolution in general conference that is why you have been several that is allusions in the i.a.e.a. expressing deep concern about nuclear capability israel more than that you have noticed that israelis have continued to threaten to attack iran is not pleased elation which is in contravention to date is illusion five three three which iran

propose 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 operation or a kind of construction is a violation of united nations charter statute and international law and united as a security 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 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 matter 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 they have to reconsider whatever they have done so on and they have to cope themselves with their reality again reality is iran is mass set 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 i.a.e.a. an international organization which is related to that therefore having said so knowing that everything is hundred twenty percent transparent and exclusive of peaceful purposes therefore they cannot through either dissolution 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 the gender in may two thousand and ten the last year the western countries rejected. agreements with turkey and brazil on low enrich uranium fuel can this particular agreement be renegotiated this later this month i have to say that this is of course a pity because i was at the head of delegation negotiation with delegations from russia u.s. and france. over two thousand and nine ford if you would for turn our decision i am to send person requests at over twenty years ago in fact when i was ambassador in. asking dr hans blix to ask the fuel for terrorist act and we got the fuel from argentina this time the we expect that the same way to give the 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 and declaration. 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 nuclear program ruse nuclear program has been making news last year or 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 two years behind schedule ready

is that true i can assure you of that divided says exists different viruses damage the 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 affect a centrifuge is deceptive you just which were visited by ambassadors of essentially they so by going on eyes that all of them are working and rotating one thousand locations per second without any problem regarding of course as a summation of the nuclear scientists and terrorist activities this is the ugly as sin phenomena 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 the phenomena and prevent such a thing to occur because the scientists of any kaante 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 v.n. are. matter of serious concern for all sorry. these are nuclear scientists particularly in or in all countries including yours or any countries they should be protected and this in fact the. act of against humanity should should be fact prevented and deplored thank you thank you very much your actual scene just a reminder that my guest today was the doctor i lead as god so tell me iran's permanent ambassador to the international atomic energy agency and that's it for now from all of us here if you don't have your sales problems you can always drop me a line we will be back with more first and comments on what's going on in and outside russia until then stay an r.t. and take care thank you very much. thank.

you.
