Iran-IAEA-Aqazadeh
Iran's cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will continue in the best possible manner within framework of the Agency's safeguards, Vice-President Gholam Reza Aqazadeh said on Tuesday.

In an interview with IRNA, Deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization (IAEO) Mohammad Saeedi quoted Aqazadeh as telling the IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei on Tuesday that the Agency would hopefully present a clear picture of Iran's peaceful nuclear program in its report.

Saeedi further quoted Aqazadeh as expressing hope that the report would be effective in the process of talks.

Aqazadeh was also quoted as hoping that the Agency and its head would play an important role in making the process helpful.

He also hailed recent IAEA report in response to the American officials' request and said, "That's a very good sign that cooperation between Iran and the Agency will continue."

Saeedi quoted ElBaradei as saying that the ongoing process in talks between Iran and the negotiating parties can lead to an agreement for nuclear, economic, political and security cooperation between Iran and the parties involved in the process.
