http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=worldNews&storyID=4512772TEHRAN (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.
Supreme National Security Council chief Hassan Rohani said it was time for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to confirm Iran's innocence of any wrongdoing.
"The case concerning Iran's peaceful nuclear activities should be completely closed at the IAEA board of governors and removed from its agenda," he was quoted as saying by state television.
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.
