Iran says the West must avoid adventurism over its nuclear energy program.
Ali Akbar Salehi, the director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, has stated that the West\'s efforts to undermine the nuclear deal reached in Geneva last November would be self-defeating. Salehi has criticized US officials\' recent remarks about Iran\'s nuclear program. He says such remarks violate the terms of the Geneva deal signed by Iran and the five permanent members of the Security Council plus Germany. Salehi added that any adventurism targeting Iran would only boomerang on the West and Iran would lose nothing.

The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran says Tehran has built a new generation of centrifuges for uranium enrichment.
Ali Akbar Salehi says Iran has built two kinds of second generation centrifuges with capacity twice as the ones before. He says the second-generation centrifuges have been installed but under the Geneva deal, Iran will not inject gas into them for six months. He also says if Iran needs 20 percent enriched uranium for its nuclear facilities, the country has the right to enrich it. Salehi confirmed that Tehran has negotiated the construction of four new nuclear facilities with Moscow. Under an interim nuclear deal reached in Geneva in November, Iran has agreed not to bring new centrifuges into operation for six months. But the deal does not stop it from developing centrifuges.

The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran has rejected as baseless any report on the slowdown of some parts of the country\'s nuclear program.
Ali Akbar Salehi noted that Iran\'s nuclear program is going on at full throttle. He went on to say that despite western media claims, the recent deal between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Councils is not aimed at stopping Iran\'s enrichment program. Salehi said Tehran is conducting researches on different generations of centrifuges with the full knowledge of the International Atomic Energy Agency. He also warned the P5+1 group against misinterpreting Tehran\'s good will in the nuclear talks.

[08 Aug 2012] Kidnapping Iranian pilgrims crime against humanity - English
Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has called on the United Nations to act immediately to secure the release of the Iranian nationals abducted in Syria and Libya.
"The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran calls for the immediate release of its abducted nationals and is of the view that using the hostages as human shields violates... international law and (the) human rights of these innocent civilians," Salehi said in a letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on Tuesday.
"I would like to seek the cooperation and the good offices of Your Excellency for securing the release of these hostages," he added.
A UN spokesman confirmed that the letter had been received but did not offer an immediate response.
On August 4, 48 Iranians, who were traveling on a bus from Damascus International Airport to the shrine of Hazrat Zainab (AS) on the outskirts of the Syrian capital, were abducted by insurgents. Three of the abductees have reportedly been killed. Insurgents from the self-proclaimed Free Syrian Army have threatened to kill the other abductees.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Mohsen Saleh, professor at the Lebanese University, to further discuss the issue.
