Mohammad ElBaradei has traveled to Iran for a one-day mission and intends to encourage the Islamic Republic to agree to new inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities. ElBaradei wants Iran to sign the Additional Protocol to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. This protocol would allow United Nations inspectors to visit Iran's nuclear sites without prior notice. Currently, Iran is only required to accept pre-arranged inspections from sites it chooses to declare. News reports indicate that the Islamic Republic may seek an end to the voluntary international sanctions on the sale of nuclear technology to Tehran in exchange for signing the new protocol.
