UAE seeks Iran assurance on 'peacefulness' of nuclear programme
The United Arab Emirates urged Iran on Friday to provide reassurances on the peaceful nature of its nuclear programme after the International Atomic Energy Agency denounced Tehran's lack of cooperation.
"There are concerns," said the permanent representative of the UAE to the IAEA, Hamad Al Kaabi.
In response to an AFP question during a press conference on the Emirates' own nuclear programme, he called on Iran to "closely cooperate with the IAEA" and "provide reassurances to regional and international countries regarding the peacefulness of its nuclear programme".
