VIDEO: As signatory to NPT, Iran can enrich uranium

see-this.wayVIDEO: Iran has right to enrich uranium as NPT signatory: Analyst Press TV 5 April 13 A political commentator tells Press TV that the Islamic Republic of Iran as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty has the same right to enrich uranium as other members of the NPT.

Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers have started a fresh round of two-day comprehensive talks in the Kazakh city of Almaty with the main focus being on Iran’s nuclear energy program. The Iranian delegation is headed by Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Saeed Jalili while the EU foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, represents the P5+1 group — Britain, China, France, Russia, the US and Germany. On Thursday, deputy to Iran’s chief negotiator Ali Baqeri said that the Islamic Republic would enter the new round of talks with the P5+1 group with clear, groundbreaking proposals. Earlier in the day, Iran’s chief negotiator urged the world powers to recognize Tehran’s right to enrich uranium under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Press TV has conducted an interview with Nader Bagherzadeh, a political commentator from Irvine, to further talk over the issue. The following is an approximate transcript of the interview. …..

 any member of the NPT has already agreed to the enrichment by the other members. There are no indications in NPT that somebody could say that I do not recognize your enrichment…. So once you sign the NPT, you have agreed to other nations to have the right to Article 4. So although that has been mentioned but probably Iran and the Iranian leadership wants to hear it from the other countries, Western countries. That is what is expected. So let’s hope that the results will be more positive than what happened in the past year or so.  http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/04/05/296601/npt-entitles-iran-to-uranium-enrichment/
