Nuclear inspectors arrive in Iran as fears of conflict grow

20.02.2012

Nuclear inspectors arrived for a two-day visit in Iran on Monday while worldwide concern over the prospects of a full-blown conflict between the Islamic Republic and the West grew.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is hoping for "concrete results" from the two days of talks focused on "the possible military dimensions of Iran's nuclear programme," the delegation's leader, chief UN nuclear inspector Herman Nackaerts, said.
