APA publishes the interview.

- What can you say about the terrorist attack against Iranian nuclear scientists?

- The scientific and technologic development of Iran started at the same time with the beginning of the Islamic revolution and is continued by the countryâ€™s leaders, honorable youth and scientists. It will not be stopped by the terrorist attacks against several Iranian scientists. Terrorist attempts by the Zionist regime and its western supporters is one of the worst and villain inhuman acts for the prevention of scientific and technologic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran and indicates the inhuman and dangerous essence of the Zionist regime.

- Who is responsible for these terrorist acts?

- The Islamic Republic of Iran considers these terrorist attacks as the result of positions and acts of western countries and supporters of the Zionist regime. Those countries are using the theme of nuclear weapon as a pretext for the prevention of Iranâ€™s scientific and technologic development and tranquility of Iranian people. By monopolizing the scientific achievements and technology, the West intends to deprive the independent countries, particularly the Islamic countries of the opportunities for progress and development and to save its domination over the nations. The Zionist regime will pay dearly for the terrorist attacks against Iranâ€™s nuclear scientist. The supporters of this dangerous and invader regime share its inhuman and criminal acts.

- Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov condemned this act in New-Yorkâ€¦

- Foreign Minister of friendly ad fraternal Azerbaijan took a well-advised decision and condemned this act and demanded the corresponding international organizations to investigate this issue. About 120 countries condemned and cursed such step. We expect the friendly countries to oppose such steps which threaten peace in the world.

- How will Iran respond?

- Of course, such inhuman terrorist acts will not influence the purpose of Iranian people, who are committed to freedom, peaceful ways of progress and development. A large generation of young faithful patriots was growing in Iran after the Islamic revolution. They are always working within the interests of Islam and Iran and will replace the martyrs, including martyred nuclear scientists.
