EU: Iran Papers Solely for Making Nukes

11/24/2005

VIENNA, Austria (AP) - The European Union is accusing Iran of possessing documents that would be used solely for the production of nuclear arms and is warning of possible referral to the U.N. Security Council, according to a statement made available to The Associated Press on Thursday.

The press statement, made available before planned delivery later in the day, was described by a diplomat as a summary of what Britain, France and Germany would tell a closed session of the International Atomic Energy Agency board which began meeting on Thursday.

The statement said the EU would accuse Iran of possessing suspicious documents that “have no other application than the production of nuclear weapons.”
