Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) are holding talks in Tehran on Tuesday to discuss Iran's atomic bomb research. Diplomats told Reuters last week that the IAEA is expected to make a new attempt to advance its ongoing investigation into Iran's nuclear program.
Western officials say Iran must cooperate with the IAEA if it wants to reach a diplomatic deal with additional world powers, thus putting an end to a decade-old nuclear dispute and ending crippling financial sanctions.
Iran's official news agency said that the IAEA delegation would begin talks with Iranian officials "to discuss the remaining issues about Iran's peaceful nuclear program." No further details were provided.
