Iran says no change in nuclear policy with new minister

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said no changes were expected in Iran's foreign policy following President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's decision to fire Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki.

Mottaki was replaced by Ali Akbar Salahi, Iran's former representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency, as the new head of Iran's nuclear program. (AFP)
