pirhayati20071025212331780.jpgIslamic Republic’s Press TV published a report today claiming that the Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Store has apparently criticized the West for focusing too much on Iran and “forgetting their own nuclear arsenal”.

Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Store has urged the West to dismantle their nuclear arsenals instead of exerting pressure on Iran.

During an address at the United Nations University in Tokyo on Thursday, he said the world should address the issue of its nuclear arsenals.

“The challenge goes beyond Iran and North Korea. I believe that those who argue against these countries need to look at their own credibility to do so,” the minister added.

The same piece is carried on the Persian Fars News, where AFP is mentioned as the source [Persian].

I spent about an hour searching at Google and found absolutely nothing. Still, I wasn’t able to imagine that they could have just made it up. So, I have contacted the Norwegian Foreign Ministry. Let’s see what happens.

Update: Did IRNA change Norwegian Foreign Minister’s Words?
