Turkey’s prime minister has accused the West of treating Iran unfairly over its nuclear programme.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan told Britain’s Guardian newspaper Western fears Iran wanted to build the bomb were “gossip”.
His comments come as a team from the UN nuclear watchdog continues its inspection of a previously secret uranium plant near the city of Qom.
Mr Erdogan is due in Tehran for talks with both President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the country’s Supreme Leader.
