The visa application for the Iranian delegation including its president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to attend the NPT Review Conference in New York is still being processed, the Obama Administration has said.

There is also no plan for any meeting between the American and Iranian delegation on the sidelines of the NPT Review Conference, Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs P.J. Crowley told reporters.

“The visas for the Iranian delegation for the NPT conference are still being processed,” Mr. Crowley said in response to a question.

“I think that a face-to-face meeting between a US diplomat and an Iranian diplomat is highly unlikely,” he said.
