Ahmadinejad To U.S.: Say You're Sorry

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on the U.S. and its allies Saturday to "apologize" to Iran for accusing it of seeking nuclear weapons, a day after the U.N. nuclear watchdog released its latest report on Iran's atomic program.

Ahmadinejad said the report by the International Atomic Energy Agency vindicated Iran and warned that Tehran would take unspecified "reciprocal measures" against any country that imposed additional sanctions against Iran.

The IAEA report said several past questions about Iran's nuclear program had been resolved, but highlighted Tehran's continued refusal to halt uranium enrichment.

"The best way for them (the U.S. and its allies) to compensate for their mistakes ... (is) to apologize and pay compensation," said Ahmadinejad in a televised address to the nation.

"If they continue (to pursue sanctions), we have definitely drawn up reciprocal measures," added Ahmadinejad, without elaborating.
