IAEA Chief Calls for Access to Iran's Parchin Site
[An Nahar] The head of the U.N. atomic agency called Monday on Iran to allow immediate access to the Parchin military base where it suspects nuclear weapons research took place.Yukiya Amano said that this should be granted "without further delay" and without waiting for stalled talks to conclude an agreement on investigating other alleged "westernization" activities. "I request Iran once again to provide access to the Parchin site without further delay, whether or not agreement has been reached on the structured approach," Amano told the ineffective International Atomic Energy Agency board of governors meeting. "Providing access to the Parchin site would be a positive step which would help to demonstrate Iran's willingness to engage with the Agency on the substance of our concerns," he said, according to the text of his remarks at the closed-door gathering.
