Iran's former nuclear negotiator says Washington's disregard for international laws and agreements is the main cause of global disorder.

Complying with international regulations will never be enough to make the US happy, said Ali Larijani in an interview with the Aljazeera news channel.

Asked about the possibility of a new round of sanctions on Iran Larijani said 'these measures are initially in deep contrast with our settlement with Mr. Solana in which we agreed to address all outstanding issues regarding our nuclear program through a work plan.'

IAEA's February 22 report asserted that the major issues regarding Iran's nuclear program have either been 'fully' resolved or are 'no longer outstanding at this stage'.

When asked about Russia's recent policy change toward Iran, Larijani said we have learned not to depend on 'any' country to maintain our national interests.

Earlier today, the Russian envoy to the UN announced that despite Moscow's full support for Tehran's legitimate right to peaceful nuclear technology, the country would be compromising on the UNSC sanctions resolution against Tehran.
