The spokesman of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), Behrouz Kamalvandi, has said that Western-imposed sanctions against the Islamic Republic have turned into a strong point for the country and its nuclear industry.


Accoeding to The Iran Project, Despite the sanctions, Iran has turned into an exporter of radiopharmaceuticals at the international level, in addition to meeting domestic needs, Kamalvandi said on Friday. 

On the political arena, attaining nuclear technology is also important, the official said, adding that as Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has said the nuclear industry enhances the country’s sovereignty. 

That’s why enemies do not want to see the Islamic Republic obtain a home-grown nuclear industry, Kamalvandi added.
