Poll: Iranians want democracy, nuclear inspections
Story Highlights
Poll shows 80 percent of Iranians are in favor of full nuclear inspections
The economy is the No. 1 concern for most Iranians, according to poll
79 percent support system in which leaders elected through free, direct elections
Terror Free Tomorrow, a U.S.-based group, conducted interviews last month
(CNN) -- Most Iranians support nuclear inspections, a democratic government and normal relations with the United States, a poll by a U.S.-based organization has found.
A majority said President Ahmadinejad has not kept his promise to "put oil money on the table of the people."
Terror Free Tomorrow found 80 percent of Iranians support full inspections and a guarantee not to develop nuclear weapons in return for aid from other countries.
Slightly more than half, however, said they still favor the development of nuclear weapons and think the country would be safer with them. Developing the weapons is considered a "very important" priority for just 29 percent of those polled.
