ISFAHAN, Iran – Iran agreed late Monday to a two-day delay in reopening its nuclear processing plant here after receiving a request from the head of the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog agency.
Mohammed ElBaradei asked Tehran for a “maximum of two days” to send its inspectors to Iran’s nuclear facility where they can oversee the dismantling of U.N. seals, said Ali Agha Mohammadi, spokesman for Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.
Earlier, Mohammadi said Iranian technicians would break the seals and restart nuclear processing on Monday.
