During an interview on ‘The Story,’ IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi provided a comprehensive overview of the ongoing situation with Iran’s nuclear program. The discussion came as tensions continue to simmer over Iran’s adherence to the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Grossi emphasized the agency’s commitment to transparency and verification, despite the challenges posed by recent developments.
He outlined the difficulties faced by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in conducting inspections and gathering accurate information about Iran’s nuclear activities. Grossi acknowledged the complexities of verifying compliance, particularly in light of Iran’s actions that have raised concerns among the international community. The director reaffirmed the need for continued dialogue and cooperation to address these issues and prevent further escalation.
As the situation remains unresolved, Grossi called for a balanced approach that upholds international security while respecting Iran’s sovereignty. The interview highlights the ongoing diplomatic efforts and the critical role of the IAEA in monitoring nuclear programs to ensure they are not used for weapons development.
