Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Monday insisted his country wants a “nuclear-free world,” days after Tehran’s leadership cast doubt on an outline deal to curb its nuclear programme.

Zarif made the comment during a visit to ex-Soviet Kazakhstan as he praised the Central Asian nation for giving up its nuclear weapons after the collapse of the USSR.

“Kazakhstan is an important player in this field, as a country firmly committed to a non-proliferation regime and which voluntarily refused nuclear weapons,” Zarif said in a meeting with the head of Kazahstan’s Senate.

“We all want a nuclear-free world.”

  1. Pakistan cannot afford to tackle terrorism and civil war in other countries. We have to take steps to make security better in Karachi, in KPK in Baluchistan. And the army is busy and committed to do that; it is doing a good job with respect to that as well. Pakistan cannot afford to send its overstretched army in a civil war.

    Yemen , Syria , Iraq and Libya are hopeless (anarchy) militia states ; these are hopeless states, hopeless. How can we save these states; even the US army could not bring stability after 10 years in Iraq.
