He also said there was a shifting of gears in Irans relationship with the West to one of more cooperation.

The US, France and Britain have ac- cused Iran of keeping the construction hidden for years. Barack Obama said last month that Irans actions raised grave doubts about its promise to use nuclear tech- nology for peaceful purposes only. a farewell to arms Youths display weapons surrendered by former militants at an arms collection centre in Port Harcourt, nigeria.
