IAEA chief to visit Iran soon
2009-10-02
[Iran Press TV Latest] IAEA Secretary General Mohamed ElBaradei is set to visit Iran "soon" to hold talks with Iranian officials, says a spokesperson for the UN nuclear watch.

"Director General ElBaradei has been invited to Tehran by Iranian authorities. He will travel there soon to discuss a number of matters," DPA quoted Gill Tudor as saying in Vienna on Thursday.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief's visit to Tehran is expected to take place soon after a meeting between Iran and the major world powers was held in Geneva.

Political directors from the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, the US, Britain, France, Russia and China, plus Germany (P5+1) held talks with Iran's top nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili on Thursday.

Tudor did not give further details about ElBaradei's upcoming visit to Iran.
