UN nuclear officials want Iranian cooperation (AP)

VIENNA ? The head of a U.N. nuclear team traveling to Iran say he hopes the country will work with his mission on probing Tehran's alleged attempts to develop an atomic arms program, adding such cooperation is long overdue.

Herman Nackaerts says "we hope that Iran will engage with us on all concerns regarding a possible military dimension of Iran's nuclear program."

He says his team is "looking forward to the start of a dialogue ? a dialogue that is overdue since very long."

Nackaerts spoke Saturday as his team arrived at Vienna's airport for a flight to Tehran.

Iran has for years dismissed suspicions that it worked in secret on components of a weapons program. Diplomats say it has signaled willingness to discuss all issues with the International Atomic Energy Agency team, but they are skeptical of a breakthrough.
