A five-member International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) team departed for Iran on 19 February for talks aimed at resolving all outstanding issues in relation to Iran's nuclear programme.
"We hope to have a couple good and constructive days in Tehran," said team leader Herman Nackaerts, the IAEA's Deputy Director General for safeguards, told reporters before the team boarded its plane for Tehran on Sunday afternoon. "This is, of course, a complex issue that may take a while, but we hope it will be constructive."
"We hope to have some concrete results after this trip," Nackaerts added.
