Iran-IAEA-Talks
Negotiations between Iran and International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) are underway in Tehran on P1 and P2 centrifuges, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini said on Sunday.
He told reporters that negotiations began on Saturday and will proceed until Monday.
IAEA experts arrived in Tehran on Friday.
The negotiations are being held at Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) in the context of an agreement signed by Iran and the agency on August 21.
The two parties held first round of talks on centrifuges in Tehran from October 9-11.
Iran has responded to the questions the agency had asked about P1 and P2 centrifuges on August 31.
The two parties will hold talks in late October to resolve the outstanding issues concerning Iranian nuclear program.
The outcome of the negotiations will appear in IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei's report in November.
According to a timetable agreed upon by Iran and the agency, the two parties have focused on resolving six remaining issues about Iranian nuclear program including P1 and P2 centrifuges, contamination sources, document on metal uranium, polonium 210 and Gachin mine.
The agency closed the file of plutonium last month.
The timetable has envisaged closure of the file of the remaining issues until the end of October.
