DHAKA: Iran has shown willingness to cooperate with the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency regardless of progress made in nuclear talks with the West.

IAEA’s chief Yukiya Amano said on Friday, according to media, The Jerusalem Post publishes this report on Saturday.

Amano said Tehran has not tied its cooperation with the UN atomic watchdog to the political talks in which the Islamic Republic is seeking relief from harsh US-led economic sanctions.

‘There is some substance in the new proposal by Iran,’ Amano said.
