Soltaniyeh: Ambassadors of world countries to visit Iran

Vienna, Jan 5, IRNA – Iran’s Permanent Representative in the International Atomic Energy Agency Ali Asghar Soltaniyeh said ambassadors of world countries have been invited to visit Iran’s nuclear facilities.

He told IRNA here Tuesday morning that ambassadors of countries heading geography and politics groups in Vienna will visit Iran’s nuclear facilities.

He said the foreign officials will visit the enrichment facilities in Natanz and heavy-water reactor in Arak.

He further explained that the invitation was forwarded to them as in line with Iran’s policy of transparency.

Soltaniyeh noted that a similar visit was taken place in 2006 by the resident ambassadors in Vienna who visited the USF in Isfahan.

According to the Iranian nuclear official, the ambassadors will also meet Iranian officials during their stay in Iran which is slated for 15-16 January.

Talking to reporters early this morning, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast, too, said the invitation extended to the ambassadors of member states of 5+1, the European Union, Group 77 and the Non-Aligned Movement to visit Iran’s nuclear facilities aimed at further transparency on the part of Tehran regarding its peaceful nuclear activities./end
