Russia urges Iran to work with IAEA

Wassenaar, February 16 (ANI): In the wake of two fresh nuclear advances, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has urged Iran to continue dialogue with the International Atomic Energy Agency. Russia has criticized a report by the IAEA accusing Iran of designing an atom bomb, saying it contained no new evidence and was being used to undercut efforts to reach a diplomatic solution. Tehran insists its nuclear programme is peaceful but the United States and its allies fear it is aimed at developing the capability to build atomic weapons.
