Tehran – Iran has achieved full acquisition of nuclear science and is currently ranked among 18 countries with recognized nuclear industry, according to Mohamad Eslami, head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization (AEOI). It’s there.
During a day’s visit to QOM city on Thursday, Eslami met with senior religious scholars and clergymen to discuss the country’s latest advancements in nuclear technology and wider applications in various fields.
Speaking at the conference, Eslami emphasized that Iran’s nuclear programme has reached the level of developed countries despite continued opposition from global power. “Today, the Islamic Republic of Iran has a full mastery of nuclear science and is one of the choice groups of 18 countries that have established the nuclear industry,” he said.
Eslami emphasized that Iran’s advances in nuclear technology have been achieved despite resistance from “hegemonic forces.” He said the country remains under some of the strictest surveillance measures imposed by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) due to its nuclear advancements.
“The global hegemony system opposes access to Iran’s advanced technology, including nuclear power,” he said. “As a result, our country is subject to the most extensive and rigorous testing by the IAEA.”
Despite these challenges, Iran continues to develop its nuclear sector, which we believe islami responded to the research, dedication and faith of Iranian scientists and engineers. He also recognized the strong support of the leader of the Islamic Revolution’s Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei in guiding Iran’s nuclear program.
Iran’s nuclear program is not limited to power generation, Eslami emphasized. He highlighted its application in healthcare, particularly in cancer treatment, and its contribution to environmental protection.
The AEOI chief also highlights the 50-year history of Iran’s nuclear industry, saying it has grown into a major sector employing more than 25,000 professionals in various sectors. He added that the organization oversees 40-50 affiliates working in nuclear and related industries.
Regarding the role of nuclear technology in agriculture, Eslami emphasized the importance of harnessing this advanced science to improve food production and sustainability.
During the meeting at QOM, senior Iranian religious leaders expressed support for the peaceful development of nuclear energy. They emphasized the importance of harnessing Iran’s vast natural and human resources, including nuclear technology, oil and gas, scientific knowledge and talented youth, to promote national progress.
The clergy also highlighted the need for continued investment in peaceful nuclear technology, along with other advanced science fields, to ensure Iran’s long-term development.
