TEHRAN (Reuters) - An IAEA report on Iran's disputed nuclear program released on Thursday showed talks were the best route to end the row, the deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, Mohammad Saeedi, said.

"This report shows that the best way to resolve this international issue is to return to the negotiating table and reach a broad agreement," he told Reuters, describing the report as "factual and legal" and showing Iran's peaceful intentions.

He also said the report showed Iran had informed the International Atomic Energy Agency about installing new centrifuges and that they would be operating by May 2007.
