Iran's Nuclear Program: National Council of Resistance of Iran Press Conference

Question:   The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) reported that there may be two new enrichment facilities which have not been checked by the proper authorities. Can we verify?

Answer:    We have no contact with the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and contrary to their claims, we have received no information directly from them regarding Iran's nuclear weapons program.We support the International Atomic Energy Agency’s rigorous, ongoing examination into Iran’s nuclear activities, and we look forward to a full report on the results of the International Atomic Energy Agency inspections to date from International Atomic Energy Agency Director General ElBaradei at the June International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors meeting.
