Iran Gives Key Nuclear Data To The IAEA
TEHRAN (AP)--Iran's top nuclear negotiator Monday said his country had given inspectors from the U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency key information about its nuclear program. ]
Ali Larijani said the inspectors, who arrived for a visit on Oct. 28, had demanded information on Iran's centrifuge technology - which can enrich uranium to low-grade fuel or the fissile core for nuclear warheads.
"We have provided required information by the IAEA inspectors. They demanded information in various fields, especially about P-1 and P-2 centrifuges, and we provided them," Larijani told reporters.
He did not elaborate or provide further details. The P-1 and P-2 are different types of centrifuges, the second much more advanced than the first.
Attending a student conference on nuclear energy, Larijani did not provide further details but said the inspectors did not question any senior officials involved in Iran's nuclear program.
Mohammad Saeedi, deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization who was at the same conference, said progress had been made with the IAEA.
"The second round of the inspections has already started. We achieved remarkable progress during the past inspections. We hope the IAEA meeting in November will be a positive meeting," Saeedi said.
The IAEA inspectors visited Iran earlier in the month.

H, maybe you should start a Iranian defense fund?
Every wonder why the IAEA isnt quoted singing the praises of Iran's cooperation?
LOL just showing the other side of the debate
though i have noticed i am getting readers from iran now LOL
on your point , I have also noticed that the IAEA has not denied this cooperation either
thats what they do , they dont get involved in the politics
not confirming is no indication that the cooperation did not take place
