Iran says it is not worried about stricter inspections of its nuclear facilities. Hassan Rouhani, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic, stated on Thursday that such inspections would prove that Iran's nuclear activities are peaceful. Rouhani expressed this opinion one day after the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) passed a resolution condemning Iran's past deceptions regarding its nuclear program and criticizing the Islamic Republic for concealing its nuclear research. However, Tehran's recent transparency, including its promise to halt uranium enrichment made to the foreign ministers of three European countries, is acknowledged. The resolution also reminds that if the Islamic Republic of Iran violates the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons again, the IAEA Board of Governors must convene immediately and consider all options, including referring the matter to the United Nations Security Council. The United States welcomed the resolution, calling it a confirmation of the serious concerns of the international community regarding Iran's nuclear activities.
