BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 1. Repeating the claim that Iran pursues nuclear weapons won't change the reality, the spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Esmail Baghaei, said at a press conference held in Tehran today, Trend reports.
According to him, in general, Iran's nuclear program is a peaceful program, and Iran's position on this is completely clear.
Baghaei noted that all the necessary mechanisms for creating certainty about Iran's nuclear program were provided for in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
"However, the U.S. side has repeatedly repeated the claim about the threat of an Iranian atomic bomb," he pointed out.
In 2015, an agreement was reached between Iran and the P5+1 group on a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action regarding Iran’s nuclear program, and the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 2231, which led to the repeal of the previous six resolutions and the lifting of widespread sanctions against Iran related to its nuclear program.
In 2018, the U.S. withdrew from the plan and imposed sanctions on Iran. Iran’s gradual lifting of the restrictions provided for in the plan was not unanimously accepted by other countries. Consequently, on September 28, 2025, UN Security Council resolutions against Iran were reinstated.
