WSJ — The head of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog agency will make an unscheduled visit to Iran on Sunday, the agency said, an announcement that spurred speculation that Tehran may finally agree to let inspectors visit secret sites and interview top nuclear officials.
However, American and European officials worry that Iran may be using the visit by IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano to divide the international community and stonewall international talks scheduled next week in Baghdad.
"It could be positive," said a senior U.S. official Friday, stressing that Iran would need to show it is ready to address not only IAEA.
