Iran: Israel seeks to divert attention from its nuclear weapons

Commending on the Israel's claim that Iran will soon attain nuclear weapons, "Israel has announced since the 80s that Iran is close to acquiring nuclear weapons and such claims are mostly raised to divert public opinion from Israel's mobilization of 200 nuclear warheads," Iran's ambassador to Serbia, Morteza Mirheydari told Serbian national TV.

IRNA reported Mirheydari saying that the possibility of the referral of Iran's nuclear dossier to the UN Security Council is very weak, but if such a move is taken, Iran will, based on a recent Majlis approval, stop cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). He said "We are for negotiations and dialogue and the door for talks is still open although the US and European Union have rejected it."
