Ambassador Mahammad Bagir Bahrami repeated that Iranâ€™s activities on nuclear energy do not seek a military purpose: â€œYou must know that, one shouldnâ€™t make weapons of mass destruction according to our religion, but we can usefully use peacekeeping nuclear energy in the development of economy, agriculture and in other spheres. It is a right of all nations. We donâ€™t care about what is the attitude of other countries to this issueâ€.
