Vienna- There is little members of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) can do at their meeting on September 22 to get Iran to halt its nuclear programme and show more transparency.
Diplomats said it was up to the United Nations Security Council in New York, rather than the IAEA Board of Governors in Vienna, to take further steps.
Top diplomats of permanent Security Council members China, Britain, France, Russia and the United States, as well as Germany, are set to gather in Washington on Friday to discuss further steps regarding Iran.
