IAEA welcomes Iran`s decision to suspend uranium enrichment program

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Nov 16, IRNA -- The United Nations nuclear watchdog on 
Monday welcomed Iran`s announcement that it would suspend its nuclear 
enrichment program as a confidence-building measure, a press release 
received Tuesday from the UN Information Center here said. 
A UN spokesman said the International Atomic Energy Agency 
(IAEA) confirmed that it had received a letter from the Iranian 
government saying it would "fully suspend" its uranium enrichment as 
of next Monday, November 22. 
The agency is now making arrangements to verify its 
implementation, spokesman Fred Eckhard told reporters in new York. 
In September, the Vienna-based IAEA adopted a resolution calling 
on Iran to suspend all activities related to uranium enrichment.
