Iran tells UN nuclear agency that monitoring cannot proceed while it is under threat
The U.N. nuclear watchdog says it cannot verify Iran’s uranium stockpile after inspectors were blocked from damaged sites and warned of proliferation risks.
- On Friday, Iran told the International Atomic Energy Agency that inspections cannot resume amid "a series of persistent, explicit, and public threats by the President of the United States" to commit armed aggression against nuclear facilities.
- Following United States and Israeli strikes during the 12-day conflict in June 2025, access to nuclear sites remains blocked, with military actions targeting Revolutionary Guard command facilities and missile launch sites.
- Current stocks include 440.9 kilograms of uranium enriched up to 60% purity, a level near weapons-grade, while the IAEA also expressed "increasing concern" regarding the Isfahan Fuel Enrichment Plant.
- The IAEA described the lack of information about Iran's atomic sites as "a matter of proliferation concern," while Iran expressed concern regarding a recent United States offer of up to $20 million for information on its nuclear program.
- Despite the refusal, Iran reaffirmed a "firm commitment to resume full implementation of its safeguards obligations" once conditions permit, as the IAEA noted it is "fully prepared to resume its safeguards activities in Iran at short notice.
