IAEA says had 'good' trip to Iran, more work needed

VIENNA: The UN nuclear watchdog said on Wednesday it had held "good" talks in Iran about suspicions Tehran was seeking atomic weapons but more discussions were needed.

"We are committed to resolving all the outstanding issues and the Iranians certainly are committed too.

But of course there is still a lot of work to be done and so we have planned another trip in the very near future," Herman Nackaerts, deputy director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), told reporters after returning from three days of talks in Tehran.

Asked if he was satisfied with the talks, Nackaerts, who headed the six-member IAEA mission, said "Yeah, we had a good trip." He declined to give more details.
