Tehran – Saba:
The Iranian Ambassador to Russia, Kazem Jalali, affirmed on Saturday that Iran will continue its peaceful nuclear program.
In an interview with "Russia 24" channel, Jalali stated: "We do not seek to possess a nuclear bomb, but we cannot deprive our future generations of peaceful nuclear technology. Nuclear knowledge cannot be bombed away."
He added: "We were deceived after reaching an agreement with the Americans to continue negotiations. Talks were supposed to take place in Muscat on Sunday (two days after the Israeli aggression began). Unfortunately, Israel attacked us in the early hours of Friday. This aggression shows that the United States and Israel were coordinating and executing this plan."
Jalali continued: "However, the Iranian armed forces and our people were fully prepared to defend themselves, as we had already been threatened by the Zionist entity. This regime has been threatening us for the past year."
