Iran's Atomic Energy Organization (IAEO) Chief Gholam-Reza Aghazadeh is due in Vienna for talks with IAEA Chief Mohamed ElBaradei. Aghazadeh will be accompanied by Mohammad Saeedi, the IAEO deputy for international affair, for the meeting, which comes only days after the Iranian nation celebrated Tehran's nuclear achievements. Last week Iran's President Mahmood Ahmadinejad unveiled Tehran's plan to install 6,000 new centrifuges at a key nuclear plant in the current year.
However, Washington has cast doubt over Iran's capability to install the centrifuges. Gregory Schulte, US ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency, said at a press conference on Thursday that "Iran has not yet mastered the ability to enrich uranium, although they are obviously working very hard to do this."
