Amano in Tehran for talks with Iranian authorities

Amono, who arrived in Tehran on Thursday, has held a meeting with Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani.
There have been no reports on the details of the meeting yet.
The IAEA chief is also expected to sit down for talks with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.
The Vienna-based nuclear agency said in a statement on Wednesday that during his stay in Tehran, Amano hopes to “accelerate the resolution of all outstanding issues related to Iran's nuclear program.”
Amano’s visit comes as the IAEA has recently confirmed Tehran’s commitment to what was agreed with six world powers in 2013.
In its latest report, which was circulated among members of the IAEA's 35-nation Board of Governors and the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, the UN nuclear watchdog said by Tuesday, June 30, Iran’s low-enriched uranium stockpile was just below what had been agreed under a November 2013 interim deal reached between the Islamic Republic and the P5+1 group - the United States, Britain, Russia, China and France plus Germany.
Representatives from Iran and the P5+1 group are working together in the Austrian capital, Vienna, to finalize the text of a possible deal over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.

The negotiations are set to intensify on Thursday, with senior officials returning to talks in the Austrian capital.

The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Britain and China are expected to arrive in Vienna, where Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarid and US Secretary of State John Kerry have been engaged in talks for days.

European Union Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini will also take part in the nuclear negotiations.

The two sides have extended their self-imposed end-of-June deadline for one more week until July 7.
