IAEA chief ‘not optimistic’ on access to Iranian nuclear site

[ssba]

IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano: “I cannot be too optimistic … We have been making our best efforts in a constructive spirit to work out an agreement between Iran and IAEA, but so far we have not been successful in reaching agreement. I have no indication this will change very soon. Through the satellite imagery we think that Iran is moving soil, demolishing buildings, using water, removing fences, doing landscape activities. We think this would hamper our verification activities.”
