An agency spokesman said the meeting of the IAEA's 35-member board of governors will resume on 4 February (10 a.m. Prague time).
The board of governors opened the meeting in Vienna on 2 February and were expected to resume it today.
Speaking in Vienna earlier, Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing said Beijing will work with the international community to resolve the crisis over Iran's nuclear program.
EU foreign-policy chief Javier Solana, who had talks with Li, said that China will join the EU in voting to send the Iranian nuclear issue to the UN Security Council.

The IAEA Resolution
On 2 February, the 35-member Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency began discussing a draft resolution aimed at referring the matter of Iran's nuclear program to the United Nations Security Council. The key section of the resolution is Section 1, which states that the Board of Governors:
Underlines that outstanding questions can best be resolved and confidence built in the exclusive peaceful nature of Iran's program by Iran responding positively to the calls for confidence building measures which the Board has made on Iran, and in this context deems it necessary for Iran to:
- reestablish full and sustained suspension of all enrichment-related and processing activities, including research and development, to be verified by the Agency;
- reconsider the construction of a research reactor moderated by heavy water;
- ratify promptly and implement in full Additional Protocol;
- pending ratification, continue to act in accordance with the provisions of the Additional Protocol with Iran signed on 18 December 2003;
- implement the transparency measures, as requested by the Director General, which extend beyond the former requirements of the Safeguards Agreement and Additional Protocol, and include such access to individuals, documentation relating to procurement, dual use equipment, certain military-owned workshops and research and development as the Agency may request in support of its ongoing investigations.
