GENEVA (Dispatches) -- Head of the UN nuclear agency’s Department of Safeguards Massimo Aparo is to visit Iran for “routine safeguards activities” but there are no pre-planned talks, Iran’s permanent representative to Vienna-based international organizations said Saturday.
Aparo’s visit to Iran would take place next week, Kazem Gharibabadi said in a tweet as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is yet to receive a reply from Tehran on an expired monitoring deal. “The purpose of the visit is in line with routine safeguards activities in the context of the CSA (Comprehensive Safeguards Agreements),” he tweeted.
