G8 Leaders: Iran Must Assure World Over Nuclear Program

 




The leaders of the G8 nations meeting at Camp David on Friday-Saturday agreed that Iran needed to take concrete steps to prove the claim that its nuclear program was peaceful, a U.S. official said. The onus is on the government in Tehran to disclose more about its nuclear activities, the G8 leaders agreed at Friday's opening dinner, hosted by U.S. President Barack Obama, RIA reports.

The meeting, at Camp David near Washington, comes ahead of a fresh round of international talks with Iran, to be held in Baghdad.

Russia has vetoed two UN Security Council resolutions on Syria over what it says is a pro-rebel bias, but gave its full backing to a UN-backed peace plan in March.

Leaders also said North Korea needed to adhere to international norms for nuclear matters and that it would face deepened isolation if it "continues down the path of provocation"
