Iran envoy slams 'counter-productive' new nuclear resolution




Iran's ambassador in Vienna on Wednesday called a new resolution passed by the UN nuclear watchdog demanding access to Tehran's nuclear sites "counter-productive" and an obstacle to talks with Washington.

Ambassador Reza Najafi told AFP the International Atomic Energy Agency resolution was "politically motivated" and "legally flawed".

The vote "cannot help and, would indeed be counterproductive to the current situation," he added.

“It is more complicated, the volatile situation, volatile ceasefire, and the unfinished negotiations between Iran and the US.”
