On Thursday, June 7, Reuters reported, citing the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran, that a North Korean expert delegation visited a military site near Tehran last month. This new report from the group, which has not been independently verified, comes as Iranian representatives and the P5+1 group are working hard to reach an agreement on a comprehensive nuclear deal before the July 1 deadline. According to the claims of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, the political branch of the People's Mojahedin, which has not yet received a response from Tehran, this North Korean delegation included experts on nuclear warheads and ballistic missiles and was in Tehran during the last week of April. According to Reuters, the North Korean delegation was 'secretly' transferred to the Imam Khomeini complex in eastern Tehran, which is under the supervision of the Islamic Republic's Ministry of Defense. The National Council of Resistance of Iran revealed the existence of enrichment facilities in Natanz and heavy water facilities in Arak in 2002, but since then, other claims from this group have remained unverified. Among these, the council reported on March 5, 2015, that it had provided information about 'a secret uranium enrichment site' in the outskirts of Tehran to the U.S. government. The National Council of Resistance held a press conference in Washington regarding this matter, and details of this news were reflected in The Washington Post and Agence France-Presse, but the next day faced a denial from Tehran officials and did not continue afterward. Now, the National Council of Resistance of Iran, based in Paris, claims, citing sources 'including from the Revolutionary Guards,' that the seven-member North Korean delegation was from that country's Ministry of Defense and visited Tehran in the last week of April. According to what Reuters reports from the National Council of Resistance, this is the third time a North Korean delegation has come to Iran in 2015, and another nine-member delegation is expected to return to Tehran next month. The report states that the North Korean delegations included nuclear experts, nuclear warheads, and components and parts of ballistic missiles, including guidance systems for these missiles. The UN committee of experts monitoring sanctions on North Korea has previously reported several times on Tehran's cooperation with Pyongyang in ballistic missile technology. In this context, the 'National Council of Resistance' denied the People's Mojahedin's claims about the secret site ahead of Iran's nuclear talks.
