The new world order under Obama's pusillanimous policy

Iran defends refusal to let in UN nuclear 


VIENNA - Iran has dismissed criticism by the International Atomic Energy Agency of its refusal to let one IAEA expert into the country as part of a team investigating allegations of nuclear weapons research.

Tehran said it had a sovereign right to decide who to let onto its territory. But its failure to issue a visa to an IAEA official, that diplomatic sources said was probably a Western atomic bomb expert, may add to longstanding Western suspicions it is stonewalling the UN agency's inquiry.

The IAEA said last month that Iran had not issued a visa for one member of a team that visited Tehran on Aug. 31 to try to advance the investigation into what the UN agency calls the possible military dimensions of the country's nuclear program.

It was the third time the person, whom it did not identify, had not obtained an entry permit.


What's the UN going to do about it?
