TEHRAN – Iran on Tuesday said the UN atomic watchdog was under “heavy political pressure” after the agency reported Tehran may have engaged in nuclear weaponisation studies more recently than previously thought.”If… the old issue of alleged studies which has no foundation is brought up then it shows that heavy political pressure is being exerted on the agency,” foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said in reaction to the finding.
The IAEA chief Yuikya Amano said on Monday the agency had information that Iran may have been engaged in weaponisation studies more recently than previously thought.
