A team from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) headed by chief inspector Herman Nackaerts arrived in Tehran Wednesday in another effort to resolve differences over Iran's nuclear projects, dpa reports.
Nackaerts and his team will later Wednesday hold talks with Iranian nuclear officials and press for access to suspect documents, nuclear officials and especially the Parchin military base, where nuclear weapons parts have allegedly been tested.
Tehran said Tuesday a visit to the Parchin base near Tehran by the IAEA would be possible if the country's right to a civilian nuclear programme were acknowledged.
In a series of meetings over the past year, both sides have been unable to agree on the conditions under which such investigations would go forward.
