Iran condemned a Western-backed IAEA resolution and announced plans to establish a new uranium enrichment facility in response, calling the move politically motivated and technically baseless.
The Foreign Ministry and the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran in a statement denounced the resolution passed by the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany at the IAEA Board of Governors.
The statement slammed the four countries for politicizing the agency and misusing its platform without legal or technical justification.
"Iran has always complied with its safeguards obligations," the statement said, adding that IAEA reports have never indicated any deviation or non-compliance in Iran’s nuclear activities.
Iran criticized the latest report from the IAEA director-general as “political and biased.”

The Iranian Iran Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the latest resolution by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors, describing it as a politically motivated move by the US and three European countries aimed at undermining Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.
ReplyDeleteForeign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baqaei denounced the instrumental use of the IAEA Board of Governors by the US, France, the UK, and Germany to cast doubt on Iran’s peaceful nuclear intentions.
He firmly rejected the claims in the resolution, which was passed Thursday based on a politically biased report from the IAEA director general.
The United Nations nuclear watchdog’s 35-nation Board of Governors has formally declared Iran in breach of its nuclear non-proliferation obligations for the first time in nearly two decades, fueling concerns about a possible Israeli military response.
ReplyDelete“(The board) Finds that Iran’s many failures to uphold its obligations since 2019 to provide the Agency with full and timely cooperation regarding undeclared nuclear material and activities at multiple undeclared locations in Iran … constitutes non-compliance with its obligations under its Safeguards Agreement with the Agency,” the International Atomic Energy Agency board resolution text, seen by Reuters, said.
The UN nuclear watchdog’s declaration that Iran is in breach of its non-proliferation obligations will further complicate nuclear talks with the US next slated for Sunday in Oman, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said, according to state media.
ReplyDeleteThe International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors has passed an anti-Iranian resolution, Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia’s permanent representative to international organizations in Vienna, said.
ReplyDelete"The anti-Iranian resolution was adopted in the IAEA Board of Governors by 19 votes in favour. Three countries (Burkina Faso, China and Russia) voted against. Eleven Governors abstained. So, the resolution didn’t enjoy wide and convincing support," he wrote on the X social media platform.
Iran is ready to consider the possibility of withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) if the anti-Iranian trend in the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) actions continues, spokesperson for the Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Ebrahim Rezaei said.
ReplyDelete"While reserving the right to a technical and non-technical response, if this [anti-Iranian] trend persists, the Islamic Republic of Iran will seriously consider it... The Mejlis has the possibility of withdrawing from the NPT," Rezaei said, as quoted by the Tasnim news agency.
Israel is fully prepared to launch an operation against Iran and has already briefed US officials, CBS News reported earlier. It added that anticipating potential Iranian retaliation, particularly against American targets in Iraq, the US has advised some citizens to leave the region.
ReplyDeleteIranian military and government leaders have already met to plan their response to a possible Israeli strike, The New York Times reports.
A barrage of hundreds of ballistic missiles will be launched at Israel without hesitation, a senior Iranian official warned.

La CBS riferisce che l'amministrazione Trump sta valutando le opzioni per sostenere l'azione militare israeliana contro l'Iran senza intervenire direttamente.
ReplyDeleteSecondo il rapporto, queste opzioni potrebbero includere il rifornimento aereo o la condivisione di informazioni. E' improbabile che le opzioni includano la partecipazione diretta di bombardieri B-2 statunitensi che trasportano il tipo di bombe in grado di penetrare gli impianti sotterranei di arricchimento dell'uranio fortificati dell'Iran a Fordow e Natanz. Senza questo tipo di attacco, è improbabile che l'azione militare israeliana possa distruggere le parti sotterranee del programma iraniano, e quindi si presume che l'azione militare solitaria di Israele sia limitata nella sua capacità di eliminare completamente il programma.
