'Iran slowing down uranium enrichment work'

Vienna, July 9: Iran has slowed the installation of centrifuge machines that enrich uranium for its controversial nuclear programme, the director of the UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, said today.

Western powers recently condemned Tehran's expansion of enrichment work in defiance of UN demands, suspecting the programme is secretly aimed at producing atom bombs, and said they were mulling more sanctions against Tehran.
