Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency on Sunday, member of the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Avaz Heidarpour insisted that a final, long-awaited deal with the major world powers should safeguard the Iranian nation’s undeniable rights.
He also called on the country’s negotiators to push ahead with the talks with serious regard for the Islamic Republic’s nuclear principles.
The lawmaker further highlighted the guidelines given by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei on the restoration of the Iranian nation’s nuclear rights in the course of negotiations.
Earlier on April 9, Ayatollah Khamenei stressed that Iran will never allow its “scientific nuclear move” to be brought to a halt, and noted, “None of the country’s nuclear achievements could be shut down, and nobody has the right to bargain over them, and nobody will do that.”
The Supreme Leader then underlined that Iran will never slow down or stop its nuclear research and development, stressing that those scientific activities will remain firmly in place as the nuclear negotiations between Tehran and the world powers are in progress.
Delegations representing Iran and Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) concluded their latest round of talks over Tehran’s peaceful nuclear program in the Austrian capital of Vienna on April 9.
The two sides are slated to meet again in Vienna on May 13, with the aim of putting an end to the decade-long standoff on the Islamic Republic’s peaceful nuclear program.
