TEHRAN (FNA)- A prominent Pakistani legislator underlined Iran’s inalienable right to us nuclear technology for civilian purposes.
“Iran is a peaceful country and its right to peaceful nuclear technology must be respected,” member of Pakistan’s National Assembly Dawar Khan Kundi said on Thursday.

He reiterated that the process of talks between Iran and the western powers to implement the nuclear deal is moving in the right direction.

Iran and the six world powers (the US, Russia, China, France, Britain and Germany) wrapped up their latest round of nuclear negotiations in Vienna on February 20. The two sides are slated to meet again in Vienna, Austria, on March 17 to continue their discussions.

Iran and the Group 5+1 (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany) inked an interim deal on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear energy program in Geneva, Switzerland, on November 24, 2013. The Geneva deal took effect on January 20.

Tehran and its negotiating sides aim to continue their talks to hammer out a long-term deal aimed at fully resolving the decade-old dispute over Iran’s nuclear energy program.
