Iran, G5+1 to hold experts meeting in Vienna in March

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran and the Group 5+1 (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany) are slated to hold an expert-level meeting on the sidelines of the upcoming IAEA Board of Governors session in Vienna next month.


The experts meeting of Iran and the Group 5+1 will be held on the sidelines of the next meeting of the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in early March.

The experts of the seven nations are slated to discuss Iran's uranium enrichment, removal of sanctions and technical nuclear cooperation in their meeting.

The next meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors will be held at the IAEA headquarters in Vienna on March 3-7.

Speaking to FNA on Monday, Irans Deputy Ambassador to the IAEA Behnam Bolourian announced that IAEA Director-General Yukio Amanos report about Iran has been presented to the member states of the UN nuclear watchdog agency to inform them about the extent of the progress made in the technical talks between Iran and the IAEA during the last few months and after the last report.

Bolourian said that Amanos report was prepared less than 10 days before the IAEA Board's quarterly meeting and given to Board of Governors member-states to study.

In the upcoming (IAEA Board of Governors) meeting the topics related to Iran and the progress in its specialized talks with the IAEA will be discussed, he said.

Amano in his report on Iran announced that Tehran is complying with its obligations under the deal it struck with the six world powers (the US, Russia, China, France, and Britain plus Germany) last November.

In his new report released on Thursday, Amano said 20-percent uranium enrichment is no longer taking place by Iran as agreed in an agreement with the six world powers.

According to a deal which took effect on January 20, the six countries undertook to provide Iran with some sanctions relief in exchange for Iran agreeing to limit certain aspects of its nuclear activities during a six-month period.

Iran and the world power also agreed that no nuclear-related sanctions will be imposed on Iran during the same period.

The report also confirmed that no additional uranium enrichment centrifuges have been installed at Irans Natanz and Fordo nuclear facilities.

Iran has also provided the IAEA with an updated Design Information Questionnaire (DIQ) for the facility in Arak.

The measures implemented by Iran and the further commitments it has undertaken represent a positive step forward, the IAEA report said.

The IAEA report was released as Iran and the six powers concluded talks in Vienna and agreed to meet again on March 17.
