BERLIN (IRNA) -- Iran's Ambassador to Germany Mohammad Mehdi Akhundzadeh here Friday pledged again his country's ""full cooperation ""with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

Speaking at a round-table discussion on Iran at the German Foreign Ministry on the occasion of the official launching of European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), Iran's envoy said, ""If the reason to send Iran's dossier to the Security Council was to address all questions, I believe the dossier should be returned to the IAEA.""
Akhundzadeh added, ""And we have decided to fully cooperate with the IAEA to remove all doubts and ambiguities.""
Iran's top diplomat in Germany stressed again that ""the questions of the past and present have been cleared.""
Making clear that Iran went ""the extra mile"" to remove all ambiguities on its nuclear program, Akhundzadeh said, ""We have reached a new understanding with ElBaradei.""
Pointing to the current crisis in the Mideast, the Iranian official added, ""We are witnessing the situation in Pakistan which has chaned in a drastic way. We are witnessing the rebirth of Taliban in Afghanistan which is a very dangerous course. We are witnessing the situation between Iraq and Turkey.""
Akhundzadeh also referred to the ""unsettled question of Iraq.""
The Iranian diplomat emphasized that his country was ""surrounded by countries full of problems.""
""We understand the important obligations that we have. At this very important juncture, I think it's very important for our European friends to have a logical and not sentimental approach. We should not be overtaken by U.S. rhetoric and against Iran, which has never attacked any country,"" Akhundzadeh said.
Meanwhile, other speakers at round-table discussion among them former German foreign minister Joschka Fischer, ex-Finnish president Maarti Ahtisaari, Italian Trade Minister Emma Bonino and British journalist Timothy Garton Ash all emphasized the need for a diplomatic solution to the Iranian nuclear issue.
Bonino stressed ""the IAEA's importance and credibility"" in resolving the row over Iran's nuclear program.
She pointed out that while Iran is a “signatory to the NPT"", several Arab states which have yet to sign the NPT are pursuing what she termed as ""nuclear ambitions.""
Bonino's remarks were partially echoed by Fischer who made clear that Iran could ""not be deprived of its rights"" to have a peaceful nuclear technology.
Garton Ash referred to ""western double standards"" when dealing with Iran's nuclear program, while not only ignoring but also rewarding secret aspects of the atomic programs in Israel and India.
