Iran-IAEA

Tehran has agreed to a visit by the UN nuclear watchdog this month to start giving answers the nuclear agency and its 35-nation board on the origin of uranium particles found at three sites, an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report on Thursday seen by Reuters said.

The head of the International Atomic Energy Organization (IAEA) says talks with Iran will continue in the coming weeks, amid differences between the two sides over what the UN nuclear watchdog claims to be “undeclared” nuclear activity in the country.

Representatives of Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) held talks in Vienna on Tehran's nuclear program, Rafael Grossi, the agency’s Director General, stated, noting that the meeting ended without result.

Negotiations to bring Iran and the US back into the 2015 nuclear deal are in “stalemate”, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi has stated.

The director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran confirms the UN atomic agency’s report that Tehran has started uranium enrichment using new centrifuges at the Natanz nuclear facility.

Iran is rapidly expanding its ability to enrich uranium with advanced centrifuges at its underground plant at Natanz, says Reuters citing what it calls a confidential United Nations nuclear watchdog report it saw on Monday.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) says it will continue to work closely with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to resolve all issues between the two sides.

Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi says the agency has started talks with Iran to iron out differences over the outstanding safeguards issues.

Director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran Mohammad Eslami has strongly denied allegations that undeclared nuclear activities or material existed in the country.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi says in order to reach a real and reassuring agreement with major world powers to revive a 2015 nuclear deal, the safeguard issues and all probes, which have been used by the West as a Damocles sword, must be terminated in the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

An analyst says Iran should resolve issues with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) before any agreement on the revival of the 2015 nuclear deal.

The director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran says it has received messages from the International Atomic Energy Agency that show the UN watchdog is going to close down the case of nuclear material in alleged Iranian sites.

The editor-in-chief of Iran’s Kayhan Newspaper has strongly criticized the IAEA’s Chief Rafael Gerossi, calling him an asset of the US and Israel.

Iran’s representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says the US and the Europeans failed in their attempt to rally African and Latin American states behind an anti-Iran statement at the Agency’s Board of Governors since everyone has realized such a measure serves political purposes and is unconstructive.

The permanent representative of Russia to international organizations in Vienna has announced that the anti-Iran resolution at the June meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors brought negative consequences.

The Iranian foreign minister, says Issuing ‘unconstructive statements’ by the International Atomic Energy Agency’s board of governors, ‘will bear no fruit.’

An Iranian nuclear official says the mere detection by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) of nuclear traces at sites in Iran does not mean that the country has undeclared nuclear material in its possession.

Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman says the country is ready to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency to eliminate the fabricated and false image about the country’s nuclear activities.

Russia’s representative to international organizations in Vienna has responded to a tweet from the Wall Street Journal report that said the International Atomic Energy Agency’s Board of Governors will not issue a resolution against Iran in its next session.

The spokesman of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) has dismissed a ‘politically-motivated’ report newly released by the UN nuclear watchdog about the Iranian nuclear program, which he says included nothing new but a mere “game played with words” for “certain purposes.”

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani says the removal of sanctions on Iran is a key priority for the Islamic Republic. Kanaani was speaking at his weekly press briefing in Tehran.

Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Mohammad Eslami says the country managed to build more than 1,000 new-generation IR-6 centrifuges within a single year.

The spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) says the demands that the UN nuclear watchdog is making from Iran are beyond the scope of the Safeguards agreement and are thus considered excessive.

A political analyst says Rafael Grossi, the head of the International Atomic Enegry Agency, is doing Israel’s bidding and is busy “laying mines” in the negotiations on reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal on behalf of the regime with the goal of derailing the diplomatic process.

Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian says Iran is serious in its demand for the UN nuclear watchdog to drop its Israeli-fabricated claims against Tehran’s peaceful nuclear program before a final agreement is reached on restoration of the 2015 nuclear deal.
