The head of the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog has announced that international inspectors will visit Iran’s newly revealed uranium enrichment site on October 25.
The International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed El Baradei spoke in Tehran following talks with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and other officials.
His visit followed a week of intense diplomatic activity surrounding Iran’s nuclear programme, set off by the revelation that Tehran had been constructing a new uranium enrichment plant just north of the holy city of Qom.
Speaking at a joint news conference with Iran’s top nuclear official, El Baradei said, “We agreed that our inspectors would come here on the 25th of October to do the inspection and to go to Qom and I hope and I trust that Iran will be as transparent with our inspectors team as possible,”
He added his agency “has no concrete proof of an ongoing weapons programme in Iran,” but that the IAEA has “concerns about Iran’s future intentions.”
