BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 1. Repeating the claim
that Iran pursues nuclear weapons won't change the reality, the
spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Esmail
Baghaei, said at a press conference held in Tehran today, Trend reports.
According to him, in general, Iran's nuclear program is a
peaceful program, and Iran's position on this is completely
clear.
Baghaei noted that all the necessary mechanisms for creating
certainty about Iran's nuclear program were provided for in the
Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
"However, the U.S. side has repeatedly repeated the claim about
the threat of an Iranian atomic bomb," he pointed out.
In 2015, an agreement was reached between Iran and the P5+1
group on a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action regarding Iran’s
nuclear program, and the UN Security Council adopted Resolution
2231, which led to the repeal of the previous six resolutions and
the lifting of widespread sanctions against Iran related to its
nuclear program.
In 2018, the U.S. withdrew from the plan and imposed sanctions
on Iran. Iran’s gradual lifting of the restrictions provided for in
the plan was not unanimously accepted by other countries.
Consequently, on September 28, 2025, UN Security Council
resolutions against Iran were reinstated.
