IAEA team, Iran fail to reach agreement

TEHRAN, Feb. 22 (UPI) -- A team from the International Atomic Energy Agency left Iran late Tuesday without an agreement on verification for the country's nuclear facilities.

The Iranian government also blocked the IAEA from a trip to Parchin, a military base where a report suggested Iran was testing potential nuclear detonators, CNN reported. The IAEA experts spent two days in the country.

"Intensive efforts were made to reach agreement on a document facilitating the clarification of unresolved issues in connection with Iran's nuclear program, particularly those relating to possible military dimensions," the IAEA said in a statement. "Unfortunately, agreement was not reached on this document."

The Iranian government says its nuclear enrichment program is only to produce fuel for reactors. The IAEA released a report in November suggesting there is research into development of a nuclear bomb.
