Under pressure to meet a U.N. deadline, Iran began detailed negotiations Saturday on allowing U.N. inspectors unfettered access to its nuclear facilities.
The talks with the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency "may take several days, (but) I'm optimistic that (we) will reach an agreement," Iran's representative to the IAEA, Ali Akbar Salehi, told The Associated Press.

The IAEA has set a deadline of Oct. 31 for Iran to prove it has no secret program for producing nuclear weapons. If the agency finds that Iran has failed to respond satisfactorily, it is expected to refer the matter to the U.N. Security Council, which could lead to the imposition of sanctions.

Curious to see what other thoughts on this are.

Hmm...

I expect they will allow inspections. I do not know what will be found.

If they cooperate, I expect no security council action. If not, I am sure any statement regarding sanctions will be very, very carefully worded per the Russians et al.

Unilateral action by the US is possible, but given the constraints of Iraq, unlikely. Isreal is another matter though
