Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is to unveil several unspecified
nuclear "achievements" on Wednesday, his government's website said.
"Several completed nuclear projects will be unveiled tomorrow in the
presence of the president," the official website said Tuesday.
"Experts believe these achievements will show the world the extraordinary
capability and knowledge of Iranians."
It added the progress will underline
Iran
's
scientific adherence to "nuclear power for all and nuclear weapons for
none," the website said.
The announcement confirmed a vow made by Ahmadinejad Saturday to inaugurate
"important nuclear projects" within "days," in a speech
marking the anniversary of
Iran
's
1979 Islamic revolution.
Iran
's
progress in its nuclear program has deeply unsettled the West and
Israel
,
which see it masking a drive for atomic weapons. A report by the UN nuclear
watchdog in November also expressed strong suspicions in that sense.
Tehran
, though, has repeatedly said its nuclear
activities are exclusively peaceful in nature.
It has also claimed to be ready to resume stalled talks with world powers over
its nuclear program but has yet to formally reply to a letter sent by EU
foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton nearly four months ago offering
negotiations.
