ABU DHABI – Iran needs to show the world itspeaceful intentions over its nuclear issue, a visiting US official said here on Monday, the official WAM news agency reported.

At a press conference, US Assistant Secretary of State for Political and Military Affairs Lincoln Bloomfield said “it isnecessary for Iran to demonstrate to the world its peaceful intentions. The only way to do that is to come clean.” The US official, who arrived here Sunday on an official visit to the United Arab Emirates, noted that Washington does not harbor any intention against Iran but only underscores the dangers posed byits nuclear activities.

“I think what we have said expresses the same feelings of all of Iran’s neighbors. They are very uncomfortable with this nuclear activity and will be much happier if Iran decides to reassure the whole world of its intentions”, Bloomfield said.

The United States has been accusing Iran of secretly developing nuclear weapons, which was vehemently denied by Tehran.
