IAEA delegation heads for Iran

 Vienna, Aug 4, IRNA -- A team of experts of the International Atomic  
Energy Agency (IAEA) headed for Tehran Monday to brief Iranian        
officials on the technical details of the Additional Protocol to the  
Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) which it is urged to sign, an  
official said.                                                        
    The IAEA spokesman in Vienna, Lothar Wedekind, said that another  
team will also be coming to Iran next week after the first team       
has returned.                                                         
    The Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency was founded   
in 1975 under the auspices of the United Nations to ensure the        
peaceful use of nuclear energy. Currently, it has 135 signatory states
committed to this objective.
