Ambassadors visit Iran Natanz nuclear plant

.- The seven ambassadors from countries affiliated to the International Atomic Energy () invited by Iran on its nuclear facilities today visited the plant at Natanz, where Iranian regime pursues its uranium enrichment program. Despite reiterating that it is a gesture of "transparency", little is known about the content of the visit, which was not invited the foreign press in Iran.

Only Iranian state television has shown pictures of the group of diplomats entering the said nuclear reactor, accompanied by Iranian Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ali Akbar Salehi and Iran's ambassador to the IAEA, Ali Asghar Sultaniye, the only ones to make statements . Sultaniye said today that this is an action "unprecedented, for a show one hundred percent transparency." The seven ambassadors, representing the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries, the group of 77, the Arab League, Venezuela and Syria, began on Saturday his visit with a stroll through the heavy water reactor in Arak, where authorities said advances have shown them as the deuterated component manufacturing.

The invitation to travel, which occurs one week short of Iran and world powers resume the nuclear talks in Istanbul, has been rejected even by countries with better relations with the Islamic Republic. Both China and Russia, Brazil and Turkey have declined the invitation of the Iranian regime, branded as "farce" by the U.S..

The EU, meanwhile, insisted that the visit of the plants is the task of IAEA inspectors and said it is nothing more than an act of propaganda to a week to resume nuclear talks in Istanbul. Salehi, who is accompanying the delegation, announced today that his country plans in the near future more visits like this to the controversial national nuclear facilities.

"We have already announced that technical experts can travel with their ambassadors to Iran to visit these facilities and explain about the realities of our nuclear activities," he added. Much of the international community, Israel and the United States in the lead, accusing the Iranian regime to hide under its civilian program, another clandestine nature and ambitions of war whose objective is to acquire nuclear weapons.

Suspicions focus especially on the uranium enrichment program in Iran, which has warned that under no circumstances give up this right.
