Speaking during a TV program on Monday, Mohammad Eslami said the nuclear achievements were made by young Iranian experts in different fields, including irradiation systems, microwave, radiopharmaceuticals, and plasma technology.
Last year, we had 159 achievements. It was important for us to speed up the time needed to get results and … turn an idea into a product,” he said.
Eslami emphasized that the achievements were made despite US sanctions targeting Iranian radiopharmaceutical companies and not allowing them to send or receive any consignments.
The West is against uranium enrichment and fuel cycle in Iran because they are against the growth of the country's power, he said, adding, “Therefore, we had to create a nuclear fuel cycle from zero to a hundred, from research to the acquisition of infrastructure. All of them have been created indigenously.
Referring to President Ebrahim Raeisi’s visit to Venezuela, the Iranian nuclear chief said the Islamic Republic’s strategic relationship with Latin America has enraged the US.
The nuclear issue is one of the areas of Iran’s cooperation with Latin America, he noted, adding that Tehran will cooperate with Caracas in the fields of irradiation and medicine.
Venezuela says the Americans have blocked their medical industry. The US preaches about human rights but it does not respect human lives,” Eslami said.
