A fatwa by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of Iran, against the acquisition, development and use of nuclear weapons dates back to the mid-1990s, though its first public announcement is reported to have occurred on October 2003, which was followed by an official statement at a meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna two years later on August 2005. The fatwa is included in the fatwa section of Khamenei's official website, and has been referred to in remarks by the administration of US president Barack Obama and Khamenei himself.
