Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Friday his country wants to allay international concerns over its controversial nuclear programme, widely suspected of hiding efforts to build a bomb.
Zarif, a moderate whose ministry was tasked Thursday by President Hassan Rowhani to handle Tehran’s negotiations with world powers, said “there are two principles in the nuclear domain — first and foremost, respect for our rights in matters of nuclear technology, especially the enrichment of uranium.
“Following that is to allay international concerns” on the atomic programme.
