International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) experts may soon accept Tehran’s invitation to inspect Iran’s nuclear facilities, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on Friday, RIA Novosti reports.
“There is an understanding that such a visit could take place after the current session of the IAEA Board of Governors,” he said.
Iran has twice sent letters to the IAEA inviting experts to visit its nuclear facilities, Ryabkov said.
Moscow hopes that the Iran Six, including Russia, the United States, China, Britain, France and Germany, will meet with Iranian officials before the end of the year, he said.
The Iran Six has been trying since 2003 to convince Tehran to halt its uranium enrichment program.
