TEHRAN -- The director general of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) said Wednesday negotiations are proceeding between Iran and the United Nations atomic organization.
Muhammad Eslami told reporters after a cabinet meeting here that negotiations are progressing and that “technical and expert delegations are going back and forth between Iran and the Agency everyday and are in contact,” referring to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
“We will report on the results of the work (the negotiations) in due time,” Eslami said.
He touched on the development of radiopharmaceuticals inside Iran and said 67 such medicinal data-x-items were in distribution at 210 medical centers and hospitals across the country.
Eslami said one million cancer patients had used radiopharmaceuticals in Iran, and that work was underway to increase that capacity.
Two new radiopharmaceuticals are being developed in the current year, he said, adding that all such medication is being produced domestically.
On Tuesday, President Ebrahim Raisi said Tehran has not bowed out of the talks on the removal of sanctions and the revival of the 2015 nuclear deal, but tries at the same time to neutralize the West’s coercive measures.
In a meeting with clerics, Friday prayer imams and groups and seminary students here, Raisi touched on the enemies’ efforts to disappoint the people.
He said, “The government considers itself obliged to create hope in the hearts of the people by providing the best and most effective work, and at the same time expects seminaries to deal with the enemy’s instillation of hope in the field of jihad of enlightenment.”
