Salehi said the names of the two inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) had been given to the agency last week.

"These two inspectors do not have the right to come to Iran because they leaked information before it was to be officially announced and they also gave false reports," Salehi was quoted as saying on ISNA.

"In other words because of these two reasons it has led us to prevent them from coming to Iran."
