Iran-ElBaradei-Nuclear
The Vienna-based diplomats of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) say that Director General of the agency Mohamed ElBaradei is waiting to receive the report of his deputy, Olli Heinonen, to include some of the relevant points in his report on Iran's peaceful nuclear program.
Speaking to IRNA, they underlined that ElBaradei's report will not be released before Monday night.
Deputy Director General of IAEA for Safeguards Agreement, who arrived in Tehran on Saturday to gather some information on Iran's nuclear program, left for Vienna on Sunday evening.
Some of the Vienna-based IAEA diplomats take Heinonen's visit to Tehran as a positive sign of Iran's cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog.
The visit, which took place in connection with the trend of Iran-IAEA cooperation, proved that as a member of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran is determined to comply with its commitments.
