UN nuclear watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei said here Monday that his agency was still unable to determine whether or not there were undeclared nuclear activities in Iran.

"I regret that we are still not in a position to achieve full clarity regarding the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran," the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) told the UN General Assembly.

He urged Tehran to "implement all the transparency measures required to build confidence in the exclusively peaceful nature of its nuclear program at an early date." "This will be good for Iran, good for the Middle East region and good for the world," he added.
