Astana, January 13 (Interfax) - A delegation of the International Atomic Energy Agency is expected to visit Kazakhstan in January to February, Deputy Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Aset Magauov has announced.
"Such visits are made each year to inspect our nuclear facilities and activities. The IAEA has not uncovered any irregularities for the past ten years," Magauov told the lower house of parliament on Jan. 13.
"Discussions arose earlier about possible uranium shipments to Iran. Again, the Foreign Ministry made a statement on December 30 which says in clear terms that we had no deals and we did not plan any deals with Iran, and there were no conditions for that, either," he said.
"We drew up a list of countries yesterday at lawmakers’ request to which we deliver uranium. Our information is transparent. The IAEA has no questions for us," Magauov said.
