Iran atomic bomb probe may be completed in 2015: IAEA

 

A long-delayed investigation into whether Iran has sought to develop nuclear weapons could be completed by the end of the year with Tehran’s help, the head of the UN atomic watchdog said Saturday.

Following his talks in Tehran earlier this week, UN watchdog chief Yukiya Amano said “progress was made on the way forward, but more work is needed.”
