The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) strongly criticized a quarterly report by the UN nuclear watchdog that has raised doubts about the peaceful nature of Tehran's nuclear program.  

The report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is "a repeat of old, baseless and politically motivated issues, presenting no new point other than a play with terminology," said AEOI spokesperson Behrouz Kamalvandi.
