                  Iran is still not complying with the International Atomic Energy Agency in its investigation of possible military dimensions to its past nuclear work, despite years of requests and despite negotiations with world powers over its program nearing a final deadline next month, the agency reported on Friday.
                  The report from the Vienna-based UN agency was obtained by the Associated Press, which reported that the IAEA provided its update to its 35-nation board and the UN Security Council.
                  According to AP, the IAEA reported it is "concerned about the possible existence in Iran of undisclosed nuclear-related activities involving military-related organizations, including activities related to the development of a nuclear payload for missiles."
                  "Iran is required to cooperate fully with the Agency on all outstanding issues" — and is not, the report reads.
                  Negotiations continued this week in Vienna between the political directors, and have been continuous between experts from the US and Iran since the powers reached a broad political framework in Lausanne on April 2.
                  According to that framework, a deal will require Iran comply with vigorous inspections of its nuclear sites on a regular basis for over a decade. The monitoring body responsible for those inspections will be the IAEA.
                  Deadline for a comprehensive, final nuclear accord is June 30.
