SMS NEWS to 58888 for latest updates <file:///C:/images/spacer.gif> VIENNA: The head of the UN atomic watchdog is flying to Iran this weekend as the long-running probe into Tehran's disputed nuclear drive appears to be entering its final decisive phase. International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed ElBaradei is due in Tehran on Friday and Saturday in an attempt to bring the IAEA's four-year investigation into Iran's atomic activities closer to conclusion. The aim, according to ElBaradei's spokeswoman Melissa Fleming, was to resolve "all remaining outstanding issues and (enable) the agency to provide assurance about Iran's past and present nuclear activities." The IAEA has never been able to confirm once and for all that Iran's nuclear drive is entirely peaceful, as Tehran claims. But under a so-called "work plan" agreed between ElBaradei and Tehran last year, Iran and IAEA officials have been holding a series of discussions to resolve the key outstanding issues. These include Iran's past experiments with plutonium, its use of uranium-enriching P1 and P2 centrifuges, and questions about particles of arms-grade enriched uranium found by IAEA inspectors at Tehran's Technical University. Originally, the work plan had envisaged resolving all issues by the end of 2007, but that deadline has since passed uncommented by all sides.
