The UN nuclear agency says it will need an extra USD 5.7 million from members to fund extended intensive monitoring of Iran's nuclear program.
The International Atomic Energy Agency specifies that amount in a confidential note dated today and shared with The Associated Press.
IAEA chief Yukiya Amano is expected to ask the agency's 35 board members during a December 11 meeting for contributions to pay for further policing of Iran's compliance with an interim agreement capping nuclear programs that could be turned to military uses.
