Iranian Government Spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham said on Monday that Russia as well as other countries can participate in Iran's peaceful nuclear program within the framework of Iran's proclaimed principles.

 

He reiterated that the Iranian government had clarified its position on the issue for several times.

 

He said Iran's views are based on three principles of conducting uranium enrichment inside the country, setting up an atmosphere of trust and providing objective guarantees to the international community on the peaceful nature of enrichment activities in accordance with internationally-recognized regulations.

 

According to Irna, Elham stated Tehran had already announced the intention of its nuclear activities as a commercial one in which foreign investments would be welcomed.
