TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister and senior negotiator Seyed Abbas Araqchi said alleged documents and accusations about Iran's past nuclear activities are untrue and Iran wants to see this proved and declared to the world.

"Iran wants to be exonerated from the PMD case and it should be become clear that the PMD cases have been false and during the negotiations, we pressure the opposite side and insist that the fate of this case should come under light within the framework of the agreement,"Araqchi said in an interview with the state TV before leaving Tehran for Vienna to participate in a fresh round of nuclear talks with his counterparts from the Group 5+1 (the US, Russia, China, Britain and France plus Germany).

He stressed that the PMD allegations have been fabricated and fed into the world public opinion, specially in the West. "It should be made clear that all of them are lies and false claims."

Araqchi said both Iran and the world powers are seeking to find ways to enable the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to verify Iran's previous nuclear activities, and "we are still having consultation in this regard".

The PMD has become a persistent bone of contention in the talks between Iran and the UN nuclear watchdog. During the last year Iran has removed 16 of the 18 questions and ambiguities that the IAEA has presented with regard to Tehran's nuclear activities, and the country has recently provided the needed answers and documents for the 17 point.

Yet, the PMD allegations against the country have remained a persistent point of difference between the two sides. The accusations are based on alleged information derived from a laptop computer that Iran's armed opposition, the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as MEK, PMOI and NCRI), claims to have stolen from Iranian nuclear scientists and later presented to the US spying agencies.

Renowned American investigative journalist Gareth Porter has in the last two years explained how the laptop documents were forged by Israel's Mossad spy agency in different articles and TV interviews, specially in his latest masterpiece 'Manufactured Crisis: The Untold Story of the Iran Nuclear Scare'.

Araqchi's remarks came after US Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday that a full accounting of Iran's PMD issue is not necessarily critical to reaching a nuclear deal with Tehran.

Kerry said the US and its negotiating partners are "not fixated" on the issue of so-called "possible military dimensions" because they already have a complete picture of Iran's past activities. He said they are more concerned that those activities have stopped and about what Iran might do in the future.
