Iran Says It’s Time for U.N. to Finish Nuke Probe.

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran called Sunday for the U.N.’s atomic watchdog to finish a 13-month probe of its nuclear program and take the Islamic republic off the agency’s agenda.

Hassan Rohani, secretary-general of the Supreme National Security Council said it was time for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to confirm Iran’s innocence of wrongdoing.

“The case concerning Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities should be completely closed at the IAEA board of governors and removed from its agenda,” state television quoted him as saying.

Rohani was speaking ahead of a meeting in Vienna of the IAEA board of governors, which will consider a new report by the agency showing Iran failed to report sensitive research involving advanced uranium enrichment centrifuges and potentially arms-related experiments.

He said the world must accept the Islamic Republic’s right to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

Tick, tick, tick.
