IAEA's board may pass a resolution that would give Iran a deadline to answer questions about its nuclear intentions, Gary Seymour, a senior analyst at the London-based think-tank International Institute for Strategic Studies says. He tells Radio Farda that the IAEA board may also pressure Iran to sign on the additional safeguard protocols that would allow unannounced inspections of Iran's nuclear sites. He adds that it is alarming that both ruling factions of the Islamic regime agree on the benefits of a nuclear program.

He tells Radio Farda that without leadership from a credible, nationalist opposition, the student demonstrations would not achieve much. Another Kerman student, who has been summoned to court to answer charges against him by security organs, tells Radio Farda that he will refuse to appear in court, since, according to the law, only university tribunals have jurisdiction over such complains against students.
