Mohammad ElBaradei, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), stated that the Islamic Republic's report on Iran's nuclear program appears to be comprehensive. Speaking on Thursday, one day before the deadline set for Iran in Canada, he noted that the report seems accurate at first glance. He reminded that IAEA inspectors are in Iran to verify the accuracy of the report. The agency had given Iran until today, Friday, October 31, to prove that it is not seeking to produce nuclear weapons. The IAEA board is set to meet at the end of November to decide whether to refer Iran's case to the Security Council for possible sanctions. In comments published on Thursday in the French newspaper Le Monde, ElBaradei stated that no amendment to the report would help enhance Iran's credibility. He emphasized that Iran must declare all its nuclear facilities before the set deadline. The Islamic Republic claims that its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes, but the United States has accused Tehran of attempting to produce nuclear weapons.
