The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Chief Mohamed El Baradei says the Agency has reached a dead end in verifying the nature and objective of Iran's nuclear programme. Mr El Baradei told the 35-member board meeting of the IAEA that there has been no movement on remaining issues of concern which needs to be clarified to verify the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear programme. Iran has stated that its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes, but other European nations, including France and the United Kingdom, believe that Tehran is out to build a nuclear bomb in violations of its obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Mr El Baradei stressed that he was disappointed that Iran had not accepted the plan supported by West for sending abroad its low-enriched nuclear fuel to be processed and turned into fuel that could be used in reactor to produce medical isotopes.
