Expert: Information Presented In Amano Report, 'Distrustful'

Vienna, Nov 13, IRNA – A senior expert in security affairs by underscoring that Iran is not going to make a nuclear bomb, said that information presented in the new report of the IAEA chief, which had been prepared by a number of western security organizations, is distrustful. Rolland Pope, expert in the Middle East and security affairs in the Zurich Security Research Center, rejected the proposed claims that Iran is to make a nuclear bomb and added that Iran, in the past 10 years, had been able to produce around 4.5 tonnes of enriched uranium with low level of purity. In fact, he added that Iran is to increase its knowledge in this connection. He was commenting in an interview with the Swiss Newspaper 'Basler Zeitung'. Referring to the presented information in the new report of Yukiya Amano, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, which had been prepared by the security bodies of a number of countries, he stressed that the information prepared by the security organizations should has always been doubtful. Mistakes, before the military invasion of Iraq upon such information, would have never been forgotten. Pope disclosed that 'we know that the US presented its security organizations' information to the agency, and the agency which asserted too much of the information would be accused of politicizing the situation, while the agency should be totally neutralized'./end
