ElBaradei says IAEA report on Iran to be released within a few days

IRNA

Vienna, Nov 8, IRNA -- Head of the United Nation`s nuclear Watchdog, 
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Muhammad Elbaradei said 
here Saturday that the IAEA report on Iran would be released within a 
few days. 
ElBaradei said after a meeting with Iran`s Secretary of Supreme 
National Security Council (SNSC) Hassan Rowhani that the IAEA report 
would be distributed among all 35 members of the IAEA governing 
council for consideration. 
The report, the UN official said, includes comments and 
considerations on the new policies adopted by the Islamic Republic. 
He praised Iran for taking an invaluable step to suspend its 
uranium enrichment activities. 
He termed as "very positive" the result of his talks with the 
Iranian officials on the country`s nuclear programs. 
After being distributed among the IAEA Governing Council members, 
the report would be discussed in the 20 November session of the 
Governing Council to reach a final decision on it. 
Rowhani`s visit is his first one to Vienna. His aim is to hold 
talks with ElBaradei on Iran-IAEA nuclear cooperation. 
Iran earlier rejected speculations that Rowhani will be carrying a
letter from Iranian leaders for the IAEA over Iran`s signing the 
additional protocol of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty [NPT] in 
his Vienna visit. 
Rowhani`s visit to Vienna came after foreign ministers of three 
leading European countries visited Iran for talks on Iran`s adherence 
to Additional Protocol. 
Foreign ministers of Britain, France and Germany in a meeting with
Iranian officials on October 21 issued a statement aiming to settle 
the questions on Iran`s nuclear program and its peaceful application 
of nuclear technology between Iran and the International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA). 
Providing proper grounds for signing the Additional Protocol by 
Iran and provisional suspension of its uranium enrichment process were
among the focal points of the agreement reflected in the final 
document issued at the end of the four-party negotiations termed as 
`Tehran Statement`.
