“The United States is abusing the UN Security Council platform by spreading false information about Iran and its peaceful nuclear program”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim is a direct quote from a statement by Iran's Permanent Mission to the UN as reported by TASS. While the statement exists, there is no independent corroboration that the information spread by the US is actually 'false'; other sources indicate the IAEA is 'not convinced' by Iran's claims of a purely peaceful program.
