Robert Wood, the acting U.S. envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency, said Tuesday that Iran should act swiftly to allow the IAEA to carry out its work.
“While we appreciate the efforts (by the IAEA) to conclude a substantive agreement, we remain concerned by the urgent obligation for Iran to take concrete steps to cooperate fully (with the agency),” Wood said.
