The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) stated that the Islamic Republic has successfully reached the level of the world's leading nuclear technology countries, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Iranian youth.

Addressing a meeting with students and professors of Shiraz University on Saturday, Mohammad Eslami said Iran has made progress in nuclear science and technology.

“Now we have succeeded in obtaining computing codes and software used in the design and construction processes,” the Iranian nuclear chief added. These codes are used in the production of atomic products, he explained.

He noted that great efforts have been made in the AEOI during recent years to pass the “research phase and enter the industrial phase” and this process is advancing.

Eslami stressed the importance of making progress in the fields of science and technology which will lead to the country’s development in all fields.

“With the flourishing of science and technology, deterrence will be created and no one will think of aggression …Therefore, it is necessary to make more efforts not to be dominated by others,” the AEOI head added.

Over the past years, Iran has recorded many achievements in its peaceful nuclear energy program in defiance of US sanctions and other hurdles created by the West.

As one of the first signatories to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran has also been closely cooperating with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
