Former Iranian president Akbar Hashemi-Rafsanjani on Friday called on Europe and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to stop bullying Iran over the nuclear dispute. "This is no way to treat a country like Iran and such an approach would definitely not bring the desired suitable results," Rafsanjani said during Friday prayers in Teheran. "We have said and still say that we will provide you with whatever guarantees needed to prove the peaceful nature of our nuclear projects and expect in return a wise, rather than an arrogant and forceful approach," he said. He said that despite numerous inspections in the last two years, both the E.U. and the IAEA repeated the same accusations as before the inspections.
