Ahmadinejad orders end to UN inspections
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Saturday ordered Irans nuclear organisation to end snap UN checks from Sunday in reaction to the UN nuclear watchdogs decision to report Iran to the UN Security Council. Because of the resolution of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) which reports Iran to the Security Council, the organisation should stop voluntary implementation of the Additional Protocol and other cooperation from Sunday, Ahmadinejad said in a letter to the head of Irans Atomic Energy Organisation.
He said that the IAEAs decision to refer Irans case to the Security Council ignored Irans right to process uranium for peaceful means guaranteed under the NPT.
