(VOVworld)- Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has said that Iran is ready for serious talks with world powers to reach a comprehensive agreement over its nuclear program. In his address to foreign ambassadors on the eve of the anniversary of Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution, the Iranian President said that every country in the world should enjoy peaceful nuclear technology and slammed efforts at monopolizing nuclear technology as "unfair and illegal." He stressed Iran wanted atomic technology for peaceful use and has started efforts to alleviate international concerns in its recent negotiations. Rouhani said Iran had opened its doors to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), within the framework of international regulations, to prove the "peaceful" nature of its nuclear program. Rouhani's remarks came a week ahead of the new round of nuclear talks between the two sides which starts on Feb. 18 in the Austrian capital of Vienna.
