Iran Says Cooperation Deal with UN Nuclear Watchdog Is Void

Iran voided its September 2025 deal with the International Atomic Energy Agency after Western powers reimposed UN sanctions, citing safety and political concerns, officials said.

  • Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, announced in Tehran that Iran has called off its nuclear cooperation deal signed September 9, 2025, with the IAEA.
  • Following the reinstatement of U.N. sanctions last month, France, Britain and Germany triggered the `snapback` mechanism, prompting Tehran to warn it would scrap the September cooperation deal.
  • Iran suspended cooperation in June under parliamentary law after attacks on its nuclear sites, citing safety concerns and the agency's failure to condemn those strikes.
  • IAEA officials face a setback in rebuilding monitoring and trust after Israel and United States strikes in June, dealing a blow to efforts on Iran's nuclear monitoring and trust.
  • Iran may still review fresh IAEA proposals despite cancelling the deal, but Ali Larijani said any offer must be reviewed by the Supreme National Security Council and the secretariat.
