Iran has already threatened that in case the six major powers, China, the United States, Russia, Britain, France and Germany, intend to force Iran to suspend its nuclear program, Iran will even "withdraw from the NPT."
Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Hassan Qashqavi said Tuesday that the IAEA has proved many times the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program.
The United States and other Western powers suspect Iran's nuclear program is aimed at producing nuclear-weapon materials, but Tehran contends that the program has no military component and has rejected calls to halt the effort.
