He repeated his call for a "double time-out" of all enrichment-related activities and of sanctions, to provide a breathing space for negotiations to be resumed.
"The earlier we move from confrontation and distrust, to dialogue and confidence-building, the better for Iran and for the international community," the Director General said.
'Soon be created to make it possible'? Yeah thats to the point. Ohg, I forgot to back it further back with 'hope'.
What does this mean, "double time-out"? Is this an Animal House reference? What a confidence builder!

The IAEA is a UN organization, therefore all of its documents are written in Diplospeak.
What El Baradei is saying is that he wants a cooling off period, where Iran stops enriching uranium and the West stops sanctions. He's being pushed hard from both sides. On one hand Iran hasn't signed the Additional Protocol, so he doesn't have as much access as he'd like. On the other hand, the West (not just the US) is pushing him hard to make it look like Iran is building nuclear weapons.
The IAEA reports are good for the technical information. All of that points to Iran not having a nuclear weapons program.
