TEHRAN (Tasnim) � Iran's Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani dismissed the accusations of clean-up activities in the country�s Parchin military site as a fabricated fuss kicked up by certain �wicked parties� to undermine a lasting deal over Tehran�s nuclear program.

Speaking to reporters in the parliament on Saturday, Larijani warned that the very same �wicked creatures� that sparked controversy over Iran�s peaceful nuclear activities for 12 years will keep employing obstructive tactics against the deal.
Those parties have now created a �fabricated controversy� to influence the international atmosphere surrounding Iran�s nuclear deal, the speaker cautioned.
He was referring to a story about alleged clean-up activities at a military site near Tehran.
American media on Wednesday cited unnamed intelligence sources as saying that satellite imagery picked up by the US government assets in mid- and late July showed that Iran had moved bulldozers and other heavy machinery to the Parchin site and that the US intelligence community �concluded with high confidence that the Iranian government was working to clean up the site ahead of planned inspections by the IAEA�.
Elsewhere in his comments, Larijani described the debate as a ploy to gain access to Iran�s military sites, including Parchin, under the guise of nuclear inspection.
While Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) on July 14 finalized the text of a lasting nuclear deal, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been given the role of verifying Iran's commitments under the accord.
Dubbed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the deal would subject the parties to comply with a series of commitments, resulting in the termination of sanctions on Iran in exchange for certain restrictions on Tehran�s nuclear program during a defined period of time.
