TEHRAN, Iran — Iran rejected accusations it was trying to build a nuclear bomb and blamed the United States on Tuesday for a warning by the Group of
Eight (search) nations that put Tehran (search) on notice for its alleged nuclear ambitions.
Iran insisted it was already cooperating with the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (search), as it develops a nuclear
program it says is entirely peaceful and aimed at offsetting a future domestic energy shortage.
"We are committed to our obligations under IAEA rules," Gholamreza Aghazadeh, Iran's atomic energy chief, said, according to state-run television.
He called on the IAEA to stop American attempts to deny Iran access to more nuclear technology.
