Amano serving world powers\' Interests

A prominent member of the Iranian parliament on Wednesday slammed the UN nuclear watchdog chief, Yukiya Amano, for his biased report on Iran\'s peaceful nuclear program, and said Amano is only at the service of the US and other world powers.Speaking to FNA, Chairman of the Foreign Relation Committee of the parliament\'s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh stressed that Yukiya Amano doesn\'t represent all member states of the International Atomic Energy Agency as many IAEA members opposed his latest report on Tehran\'s nuclear activities. \"Amano is a political agent whose mission is serving the interests of some powers,\" Falahatpisheh stated. His statements came after Amano released the UN nuclear watchdog\'s latest report on Iran\'s nuclear activities earlier this month. Many nuclear experts and political pundits even in the West believe that the report carries the US tone and wording. The western diplomats and sources had informed around a month ago that the new report would contain allegations on the basis of some copied documents which have been presented to the IAEA by certain western countries to show that Iran is pursuing a military drive in its nuclear program. Political observes say that Israel and the United States dictated the report to Amano on Iran to find a pretext for intensifying pressures on the Islamic Republic. Once the report was released, not only Iran, but also many world states, including Russia, China and the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) member states, strongly rejected it and blasted the UN nuclear watchdog chief for acting as a White House proxy. Meantime, Iran underlined that it would not budge \"an iota\" from its peaceful atomic activities. Washington and its Western allies accuse Iran of trying to develop nuclear weapons under the cover of a civilian nuclear program, while they have never presented any corroborative evidence to substantiate their allegations. Iran denies the charges and insists that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. Tehran stresses that the country has always pursued a civilian path to provide power to the growing number of Iranian population, whose fossil fuel would eventually run dry. Despite the rules enshrined in the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) entitling every member state, including Iran, to the right of uranium enrichment, Tehran is now under four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions for turning down West\'s calls to give up its right of uranium enrichment. Tehran has dismissed West\'s demands as politically tainted and illogical, stressing that sanctions and pressures merely consolidate Iranians\' national resolve to continue the path.
