Iran to Allow New Memory Cards in Nuclear Site Cameras, Averting IAEA Showdown
(AP-Washington Post) Nasser Karimi and Jon Gambrell - Iran agreed Sunday to allow international inspectors to install new memory cards into surveillance cameras at its sensitive nuclear sites, potentially averting a diplomatic showdown with the International Atomic Energy Agency. The IAEA told member states last week that its verification and monitoring activities have been "seriously undermined" since February by Iran's refusal to let inspectors access their monitoring equipment. Tehran holds all camera recordings at its sites. "The memory cards are sealed and kept in Iran," said Mohammad Eslami of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran.
