Iran envoy slams ‘counter-productive’ resolution from UN nuclear watchdog

Iran’s ambassador in Vienna calls a new resolution passed by the UN nuclear watchdog demanding access to Tehran’s nuclear sites “counter-productive” and an obstacle to talks with Washington.

Ambassador Reza Najafi tells AFP the International Atomic Energy Agency resolution was “politically motivated” and “legally flawed.”

The vote “cannot help and, would be indeed counterproductive to the current situation,” he adds. “It further complicates the volatile situation, volatile ceasefire, and the unfinished negotiations between Iran and the US,” he says.
