PGCC not concerned about Iran's nuclear program: Bahraini FM

Bahraini Foreign Minister said that the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) is by no means concerned about Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.

Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmad al-Khalifa made the remarks in an exclusive interview with the Bahraini based daily al-Hayat.

“We are not at all concerned about Iran’s access to nuclear technology. We want the entire region and the whole world free from nuclear weapons. This is what the Islamic Republic is also interested in,” the Bahraini FM reiterated.

He added that the PGCC member states welcome direct talks between Iran and the US.

Al-Khalifa voiced readiness of the PGCC states to participate in Tehran-Washington future talks on regional security.
