Safeguards Inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency

After an interruption in regular inspections since January 1999, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) performed a safeguards inspection at the Vinca Institute of Nuclear Sciences outside Belgrade, Yugoslavia, on 3-4 June 1999.

The inspection team of three IAEA inspectors carried out all planned inspection activities and can confirm, subject to completion of its analysis, that it did not find any indication that the status of nuclear material at the facility has changed. The IAEA has a responsibility to inspect the nuclear material at the Vinca Institute under an existing safeguards agreement.
