Details

Tammy Bruce called Iran's decision to suspend cooperation with the IAEA "unacceptable."

According to her, Tehran has the opportunity to change course and choose the path of peace and prosperity.

She noted that Iran must comply with the safeguards agreement provided for by the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).

In addition, the country's government must provide the Agency with the necessary information to clarify and resolve long-standing issues regarding undeclared nuclear materials.

Recall

On June 27, 2025, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced the cessation of cooperation with the IAEA after the approval of the relevant bill. The decision of the Iranian parliament, finally approved by the Guardian Council, is binding, which will reduce the transparency of the nuclear program.

On July 2, 2025, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed the law on the suspension of cooperation with the IAEA. This decision could be a leverage in future negotiations on Iran's nuclear program.
