Iran to develop cooperation with IAEA: President

President Hassan Rouhani made the remarks in a meeting with visiting Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Yukiya Amano.

The IAEA chief arrived in Tehran late on Saturday to confer with top Iranian officials, including President Rouhani and Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif.

Analysts believe that Amano’s day-long visit to Tehran is very important regarding the recent dispute began by the US President Donald Trump over the July 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and the world powers, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Trump in his October 13 speech took a new strategy on Iran and decertified Iran’s commitments to the international deal, the commitment which has already been reaffirmed by the IAEA eight times.
