Iran has allowed a foreign leader to visit its main uranium enrichment site for the first time.

Tsakhia Elbegdorj, the president of Mongolia, toured the Natanz facility late on Monday.

It will be seen as an attempt by Tehran to show the West that its policy of diplomatic isolation has failed.

State media said the Mongolian leader was free to visit any part of the site.
