Threats against Iran’s ‘indigenized’ nuclear industry meaningless: Spokesman

Threats against Iran’s nuclear program have been rendered totally meaningless due to the indigenization of the country's nuclear industry, says the spokesman of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI).

Speaking at a gathering of the heads of Iranian diplomatic missions held at the Foreign Ministry in Tehran, Behrouz Kamalvandi said even the enemies acknowledge that the Islamic Republic’s nuclear capabilities have reached a level that cannot be eliminated.

According to Press TV, he said “Given that Iran’s nuclear capabilities have been indigenized and have grown deep roots, any threat against the country’s nuclear industry is completely meaningless.”

Kamalvandi further emphasized that the nuclear industry is a driving force in different industries and is not limited to a specific field.

He said Iran can provide one million patients with radiopharmaceuticals. The spokesman pointed to US sanctions against Iran, saying the US had claimed that medicines were not subject to sanctions, “but the truth was something else.”
