The President of the Islamic Republic states that the recent United Nations report on Iran's nuclear program exaggerates some minor accusations, yet it proves that the Islamic Republic is not involved in the construction of nuclear weapons. Mohammad Khatami, in an interview with reporters in Tehran on Wednesday, dismissed the accusation that Iran has violated its commitments under the Non-Proliferation Treaty on multiple occasions. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) released a report on Monday stating that Iran produced small amounts of enriched uranium and plutonium. The agency's board is set to meet later this month to decide whether Iran should be declared in violation of its commitments. Such a move could lead to the imposition of sanctions against Iran.

Former President Mohammad Khatami criticized a recent UN report on Iran's nuclear program, claiming it exaggerates minor issues while asserting that Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons.
