IAEA team in Iran for nuclear talks

A team of six inspectors from the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has arrived in the Iranian capital, Tehran.

Iran has been accused by Western countries of developing nuclear weapons, which it denies. The IAEA team is in the country for three days to visit uranium enrichment sites and for talks aimed at allaying these concerns.

But upon arrival, the team was greeting by angry demonstrators holding images of Iranian nuclear scientist Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan who was killed in a recent bombing.

it's becoming very obvious the IAEA are unbalanced or inconsistant in there approach to nuclear issues the USA and there allies in the EU are much of the same opinion on the subject of Iran's nuclear program after all there is no evidence to support the idea there is a military objective relating to this issue on the other side of the coin there is a different approach to Israel's nuclear program who has nuclear weapons and is in violation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty

@iranwarcom haha. Youre funny. Both the American intelligence community and the IAEA and every other organisation on the planet do not think that Iran has nuclear weapons. They only claim that Iran is developing a weapons programme. You clearly know something the rest of the world doesn't. Or are you just blood lusting over another war?

Talk is cheap and its to late. Iran already has nukes. While Obama is talkng in circles Iran is moving nukes deep in the mountains. Iran War is just weeks away

Israel has 200+ nukes and they are free to bomb any nations. IAEA is an indirect agency of united states gov. deals with depriving hostile nation of nuclear potential.

@AmericanPatriot53 The problem is not really the "suspicion"; all countries have clandestine or obfuscated activities for basic safe-guarding of research.

However, looking at intelligence reports from various agencies, we can clearly see all of them agree on one thing: Iran does neither have any weaponized nuclear material, nor do they possess facilities for the development of such.

Japan is a signatory of the NPT but enriches uranium one step short of weaponization.
