Tehran: A meeting between Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Gholamreza Aghazadeh and the head of the UN's nuclear watchdog Mohamed ElBaradei has been postponed, according to Iranian media.
No reason was given for postponing the meeting, which was due to take place in Vienna on Monday.
Iran said the meeting with the IAEA would take place at a more “appropriate time.''
Last week Iran announced it had started installing 6,000 more uranium enrichment centrifuges at its Natanz plant.
The move came shortly after the UN Security Council approved slapped a third round of sanctions on Iran over it's nuclear programme.
