Tehran (IP) - The spokesman of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran says the nuclear capability can help Iran's industry and economy, and that is the issue that made the enemies disturbed.

Iran PressIran news: In an interview with IranPress on Tuesday, Behrouz Kamalvandi emphasized that the reason behind the enemies' improvising political problems for Iran's nuclear industry is the power that the industry gives to Iran.

Behrouz Kamalvandi, while visiting Iran Press news agency on Tuesday evening, referred to the 20-year document of the Atomic Energy Organization and said: Nuclear energy programs in the world usually have 20 or 50-year periods, as it may take ten to fifteen years to complete a power plant.

He added: Iran's 20-year plan includes seven separate documents, which include power plant, fuel cycle and human fields, which were also unveiled last year. These programs are mainly in the field of radiopharmaceuticals, which is related to people's lives.

Pointing out that Iran needs atomic equipment in the oil industry and refineries (in the wells), Kamalvandi said that an important part of this program is dedicated to these things.

He noted: "we need the media's help to show the impact of nuclear energy on people's lives."

Regarding the effects of nuclear energy on people's lives, Kamalvandi stated that as the Leader of the Islamic Revolution has also pointed out, we must show these effects to the people, but we need the help of the media.

Limiting Iran's nuclear industry to mere enrichment enemies' plot 

Stating that Iran's nuclear program is more than just enrichment, he said it is the enemy's propaganda that limits Iran's nuclear program to mere enrichment.

He added that if some countries are against the nuclear industry and want to say that it is limited only to enrichment, they are trying to claim that Iran is looking for nuclear weapons. He said the enemies' propaganda against the nuclear industry is because of the fact that it leads to people's better life and their satisfaction.

 Radiopharmaceuticals supply company was sanctioned

Kamalvandi stated: "Despite the fact that the sanctions must not include food and medicine, we managed to produce radiopharmaceuticals so that people would not feel worried, but unfortunately, our only radiopharmaceuticals supply company was sanctioned."

"ّFirst, we tried to lift the sanction, but after about two years of investigation, they said that the sanction on this company could not be lifted because the company is working with the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran."
