Nuclear monitoring in Iran ‘seriously undermined’: IAEA

VIENNA, 08 September 2021, (TON): The IAEA said in a report that its monitoring tasks in Iran had been “seriously undermined” after Tehran suspended some of the UN agency’s inspections of the country’s nuclear activities.

In February Iran suspended some IAEA inspections in response to the United States’ refusal to lift sanctions on Iran.

“Since 23 February 2021 the Agency’s verification and monitoring activities have been seriously undermined as a result of Iran’s decision to stop the implementation of its nuclear-related commitments” under the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, the International Atomic Energy Agency said in its report.

It added “Iran has boosted its stocks of uranium enriched above the percentage allowed in the 2015 deal.”
