Japan acknowledges Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear technology
TEHRAN, March 15 (MNA) -- Commenting on Iran’s nuclear activities, Japanese Ambassador to Iran Kinichi Kumano stated that his country acknowledges Tehran’s right to a peaceful use of nuclear energy.
He said that when Japan began to conduct nuclear activities, its neighboring states were suspicious about the nature of the activities, however, it managed to gain the confidence of the international community over the course of many years by allowing inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Organization to visit its nuclear facilities.
Of course Japan has the capability to make nuclear weapons, but it does not have such an intention and could convince the world that its activities are meant for civilian purposes and not military ones, Ambassador Kinichi stated.
