Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said the country is ready for more cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) if it balances its approach, ISNA reports.

"The IAEA will modify its approach towards Iran. It will have no other choice. We are ready to cooperate more with the IAEA if it works according to the Safeguards Agreement rules," he told reporters Sunday, November 20.

“If that is the case, we are prepared to cooperate much the same as before and even further with the agency,” he said.

The UN Security Council has already imposed four sets of sanctions on Iran to pressure it to halt its nuclear activities.

Salehi also called the UN Security Council recent resolution as well as the report released by the IAEA Chief Yukiya Amano "ineffective."

He said, "They made two mistakes. Firstly they released documents which lack credit and secondly their documents do not have any credit. The IAEA Chief had released the documents under pressures of western countries and he will find out in the future that he had made a mistake."

Also regarding Iran-IAEA relations, he said, "We try to keep our relations with Amano. We believe that the agency is the only legal source for nuclear activities of member states and we do not want its dignity be damaged."
