U.N. Nuclear Chief Sees Progress on Iran
As Europeans mull an Iranian offer to resume negotiations, the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency said Monday that his inspectors were making progress in their effort to probe the country's nuclear weapons intentions. "We are moving in the right direction," Mohamed ElBaradei, winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, said at a conference sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. However, he said his inspectors were eager to take a look at the Lavizan facility, where Iran conducts high-explosive tests that could have a bearing on developing weapons. Overall, he said, "we are making good progress with Iran."
"You just can't see it because you're not a trained observer like me! It's there, take my word for it!" |
