Iran without nuclear armament ambition

If I heard aright on CNN this morning, Iran's new President, a former member of Iran's nuclear monitoring team that included international monitoring delegates, has re-affirmed that his country will not pursue developing nuclear weapons such as a nuclear bomb; though it will attempt to use nuclear power for peaceful purposes. 

I will continue to maintain that Iran is not a serious threat to world-peace, even though it has obviously aided the Syrian government in training and arming the Syrian military.  There are factions in Iran that hate the US and attempt to do hostile actions against the West.  But I think the present regime is making strides to cope with this internal problem.

I have argued also through the years that US policy pertaining to Iraq has actually brought it under Iran's sphere of influence.  Currently, I understand, southern Iraq is strongly influenced by proximity to Iran's borders.  But Iran seems a country in change for the better, despite its ties to Putin.

Specifically, I think Chinese trade is helping Iran re-assess its world posture.
