Iran’s newly-revealed nuclear facility is open for inspection by UN experts, the country’s president has said.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad insisted that the plant, thought to be under construction near the holy city of Qom, was being built in line with UN regulations.
Leaders of the US, UK and France have accused Iran of building a new plant to enrich uranium, in breach of UN rules.
They raised the prospect of new, tough sanctions against Iran if it does not fully co-operate with global powers.
