Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian
Armenia’s foreign minister says Iran’s nuclear program is peaceful
and stresses that the country has a right to benefit form the energy.

`Armenia supports Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear energy as
something that every country is naturally entitled to,’ said Vartan
Oskanian in meeting with the Iranian Ambassador to Yerevan, Seyyed
Ali Saqian on Tuesday.

`We believe that Iran’s nuclear program has been peaceful and there
has been no deviation in it,’ said Oskanian.

The Iranian ambassador, for his part, said the report issued by IAEA
Chief Mohamed ElBaradei has cleared ambiguities regarding Iran’s
nuclear issue.

`Iran has given clear answers to all the questions posed by the
International Atomic Energy Agency and Mr ElBaradei has confirmed
that Iran’s nuclear program has not deviated from the peaceful path,’
said Saqian.

This is while the United States has stepped up its efforts to
convince UN Security Council members to impose a third round of
sanctions on the Islamic country.
