Musharraf Denies Making Iran Bomb Remark

BBC


Pakistan has denied that President Pervez Musharraf told a German magazine that Iran was "very anxious" to have a nuclear bomb.
Iran demanded an urgent clarification after the comments were carried in Der Spiegel magazine on Saturday.

Pakistan's foreign office spokesman, Jalil Abbas Jilani, said the president had been misquoted.
Iran, under an international nuclear investigation for two years, says its industry is for peaceful purposes.
