TEHRAN (Reuters) — Iran’s top nuclear official will meet this week in Vienna with Mohamed ElBaradei, the United Nations monitoring chief, the official news agency IRNA reported Saturday.
IRNA said the Iranian, Gholamreza Aghazadeh, would meet Monday with Dr. ElBaradei, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council and Germany are scheduled to meet Wednesday to discuss sweetening incentives they offered Iran in 2006 to curb its nuclear program, which they suspect has a military purpose.
Iran announced Tuesday that it had expanded its nuclear work, which it insists is to generate electricity, by starting to install 6,000 more centrifuges to enrich uranium.
Since 2006 the Security Council has imposed three rounds of limited sanctions on Iran for refusing to stop enriching uranium, which can be used as fuel in power plants or, if refined further, to provide material for nuclear weapons.
