Iran is complying with the terms of last year's interim nuclear agreement with G5+1, a monthly update from the U.N. atomic agency obtained by Reuters showed on Thursday.

Under the landmark accord that took effect on Jan. 20, Iran has curbed some parts of its nuclear program in exchange for a limited easing of sanctions as per earlier agreement, the monthly updates added.

The IAEA update showed that Iran had - as stipulated by the Nov. 24 agreement with the United States, France, Germany, Britain, China and Russia - diluted half of its higher-grade enriched uranium stockpile to a less proliferation-sensitive fissile concentration.

The accord was designed to reach an opportunity for talks on a permanent settlement of Iran peaceful nuclear activities dispute.

Those talks got under way in February and the next meeting is due on May 13 in Vienna.
