Any anti-Iran resolution by IAEA will provoke 'immediate response': Nuclear chief

The Iran Project : The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) has warned of an "immediate response" to any resolution by the UN nuclear agency against the country's peaceful atomic program.

According to The Iran Project, Mohammad Eslami made the remarks during a joint press conference with Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi in the Iranian capital of Tehran on Thursday.

"Any resolution against Iran's nuclear program will be met with Iran's immediate response," he said, emphasizing that the Islamic Republic, undeterred by pressure, will advance its nuclear activities within the framework of its national interests.

The remarks came a day after Reuters reported that European powers are pushing for a new anti-Iran resolution at the IAEA’s Board of Governors meeting next week to pile up pressure on Tehran.

Eslami said that such resolutions will naturally establish the right for Iran to take countermeasures.
"The main issue is that if the opposite side takes the path of confrontation, resolution and disruption against Iran, it will receive a reciprocal response," he added.

"If they take the path of interaction, Iran is willing to interact, but if they choose another path, Iran will take necessary decisions."
