TEHRAN, Jan. 18 (MNA) � AEOI head Ali Akbar Salehi in a Mon. presser with Yukiya Amano said the fabricated case against Iran's nuclear program has been dissolved and the two sides have now entered a new phase of cooperation.

Mr. Amano�s visit came immediately after the nuclear accord between Iran and the 5+1 group of countries was put into effect and the sanctions against the Islamic Republic were lifted on Saturday following the�IAEA confirmation of�Iran�s commitment�to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

�During the talks we held today, we decided to keep our eyes turned to the future and leave behind every other issue belonging to the past,� said Salehi.

The AEOI head went on to add that he has asked Mr. Amano to compensate for all the lost opportunities in its cooperation with Iran as a result of the twelve years of having built a fabricated case against Iran�s nuclear program.
