UN denies report Ban plans to visit Natanz nuclear facility in Iran   

Tehran Times - 29 August, 2012

The United Nations on Monday denied the report claiming that Secretary General Ban Ki-moon would visit the Natanz nuclear enrichment facility in the central province of Isfahan during his stay in Iran to attend the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in the Iranian capital.

The Fars News Agency had reported on Monday that Ban, who will visit Tehran on Thursday and Friday, would inspect the facility.

“There is no such plan for a visit of this kind by the secretary general while he is in Iran for the summit,” UN spokesman Martin Nesirky said in New York, the Gulf Times reported, citing a report by the German Press Agency, dpa.

In addition, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said in Tehran on Tuesday, “We have no special plan for a visit to Iran’s nuclear facilities by foreign guests participating at the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement countries in Tehran.”
