Iran seriously after resolving two remaining issues with IAEA: Envoy
اشتراک گذاری در فیسبوکاشتراک گذاری در توییتر

In an exclusive interview with Iran Nuances, Mohsen Naziri Asal, Iran’s envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), discussed the recent meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors. He characterized the meeting as “routine”, noting that “despite anticipation from some Western nations, only a limited number of countries joined their statement, similar to previous instances”. This, he suggested, indicates that “member countries and observers are seeking a peaceful resolution to Iran’s nuclear issue, adhering to international criteria and standards applicable to all”.

He further noted that “the statement, which was endorsed by a specific group of Western countries and their allies, did not introduce any new perspectives and merely repeated their previous positions”.

Naziri further elaborated, “During the meeting pertaining to Iran, several countries, which are our allies and have expressed concerns about views and attitudes rooted in double standards, put forth their principled stances. A noteworthy development was the support extended by nine countries through a statement endorsing Iran’s peaceful nuclear program. This statement underscored all the advancements made during this period and highlighted Iran’s cooperation with the agency. It emphasized that Iran has honored its commitments in good faith, and advocated for the continuation of cooperation between Iran and the agency. The statement also cautioned that external interference would not aid this cooperation but rather complicate the issue.”

Referring to the IAEA Director General’s report on Iran, Iran’s envoy to the IAEA expressed his views, stating, “We believe the report could have been better and presented to the Board of Governors in a manner that more accurately reflects the existing realities. Concurrently, numerous discussions have demonstrated that Iran has been able to resolve issues through a highly constructive and positive engagement with the agency during this period, underpinned by good intentions.”

Addressing the remaining two issues, he stated, “Iran is earnestly committed to addressing these two matters through professional collaboration with the agency, with the aim of reaching a resolution.”

Naziri further elaborated, “Iran has undertaken voluntary actions both during the JCPOA and subsequent to the US’s withdrawal from it. Additionally, Iran has managed to implement limited measures during this period of cooperation with the agency. However, it was clear that in response to Iran’s positive stance, reciprocal positivity was expected from the other parties. Regrettably, this is not the first instance of them reiterating their excessive demands. Each time they attend a meeting in the absence of the JCPOA, instead of returning to the JCPOA and attributing blame to the US, they insinuate that they anticipate Iran to exert more effort and undertake further voluntary actions. This is not acceptable. Iran’s obligations are confined to the comprehensive safeguards agreements – nothing less and nothing more. Every action undertaken by Iran is executed in accordance with an agreement reached through constructive interaction with the Director General of the agency, taking into account all international standards and our obligations. This meeting exposed their excessive demands in attempting to convert Iran’s voluntary commitments into legal and binding obligations, which was a significant error. In a statement from like-minded countries, it was also underscored that Iran has no obligations under the JCPOA and that Iran’s obligations are under the comprehensive safeguards agreements.”

Iran’s envoy to the IAEA further stated, “We should anticipate that our professional cooperation with the agency will persist. The politicized views and motivations pursued by a certain number of countries during the meeting do not contribute constructively. We have previously expressed that such actions could potentially lead to negative repercussions. Therefore, it is incumbent upon all parties to strive to ensure that the cooperation between Iran and the agency continues in a highly professional and positive environment, facilitating the resolution of any outstanding issues between Iran and the agency.”
