10/11/2007 11:15:29 PM Thursday, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accused Tehran of "lying" about its intention to produce nuclear weapons through its controversial nuclear program.
Rice said the international community has no doubts that Teheran wants the capability to produce nuclear weapons and has deceived the UN nuclear watchdog about its aim in the process.
Rice told reporters aboard her plane as she headed to Moscow for discussions with her Russian counterpart about Washington's plans to place a missile defense system in Europe, that there is an Iranian history of obfuscation and lying to the IAEA. There is a history of Iran not answering important questions about what is going on, and there is Iran pursuing nuclear technologies that can lead to nuclear weapons-grade material.
