Iran hits back at US nuclear allegations

Iran has accused the United States of making fake allegations in order to justify its own nuclear weapons. An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, criticized comments made by US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. Clinton, has accused Iran of flouting the rules of the nuclear NON-proLiferation treaty with its uranium enrichment program. But Iran insists the US is trying to divert attention from its own nuclear arsenal. Ramin Mehmanparast, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, "Further sanctions on Iran are closer to a physiological war rather than something efficient. They attempt to influence the public opinion negatively and play with words. Whether a new resolution will be passed or not, or fresh sanctions will be imposed or not, these speculations cannot affect Iran's determination and will."
