MP: Iran has right and need to all peaceful nuclear capabilities

An Iranian lawmaker said today that the nuclear research project should be a second step in the peaceful nuclear activities.

IRNA reported that Member of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Hamid-Reza Haji-Babaie said the first step in the peaceful nuclear activities was resumption of the UCF activities in Isfahan, and the next step should mark a new phase in that connection.

"In whatever stage we are, Europe will talk to us in the same step.

"Whether they like it or not, we will continue our nuclear activities and the conclusion of the measure will be establishment of a new form of collaboration.

"Regarding the first step we have taken in connection with UCF today, there are no longer any talks on the issue and they only say don't start the Natanz project," the parliamentarian added.

The Iranian government should start peaceful nuclear activities in Natanz too, said Haji-Babaie, adding, "in case of following the path of wisdom, the US and the parties, being against us, cannot do a damn thing also."

No room has been left today for the US to confront Iran's peaceful nuclear activities, said the lawmaker, adding that Tehran is now in a favorable position and the US cannot find any reason to drag the case into the UN Security Council.

The US has done whatever it wished to do against Iran so far, he concluded.
