Iran expects a fast response from globe powers on an accord to ship much of its low enriched uranium to Turkey as piece of a nuclear fuel swap cope, the foreign ministry explained on Tuesday.

Iran will notify the Worldwide Atomic Vitality Agency (IAEA) of the accord signed on Monday with Turkey and Brazil "in writing, by means of the standard channels, inside a week," foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said.

"We be expecting members of the Vienna party (the United States, France, Russia and the IAEA) to speedily announce their readiness" to put into action the fuel swap, he told reporters.





The IAEA mentioned it has obtained the text of the joint declaration by Iran, Brazil and Turkey but was now ready for Tehran to notify it directly of what commitments it had undertaken.

"We are now ready for created notification from Iran that it agrees with the pertinent provisions integrated in the declaration," IAEA spokeswoman Gill Tudor stated on Monday.

The so-named Vienna Team created an deliver last October to ship most of Iran's LEU out of the region in return for higher grade reactor fuel to be supplied by Russia and France.
