Russian security chief in Iran for nuclear talks
(AFP)

28 January 2007


TEHERAN - Russia’s Security Council Secretary Igor Ivanov was in Teheran 
on Sunday for talks on Iran’s controversial nuclear drive, local media 
reported.

Ivanov is due to hold talks with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, national 
security chief and top nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani, and Foreign 
Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, the semi-official Mehr news agency said.

He will also hold a joint press conference with Larijani on Sunday.

Russia supports Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear technology but voted 
for a UN Security Council resolution in December that imposes sanctions 
on Iran for its repeated refusal to freeze controversial uranium 
enrichment work.

Russia is building Iran’s first nuclear power plant at Bushehr on the 
Gulf coast. It has been criticised by Washington for delivering TOR-M1 
surface-to-air missile defence systems to Iran.

In a joint statement with India on Thursday, Russia called for 
”diplomacy and dialogue” in the worsening dispute over Iran’s nuclear 
programme, but also urged Teheran to comply with UN demands.

Iran says its nuclear drive is aimed at peaceful energy generation, 
vehemently denying charges that it could be diverted towards weapons 
development.
