The United States and its allies have pushed the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) board to report Iran to the UN Security Council over its nuclear cooperation. Diplomats confirmed that if the resolution passes, it will follow up on a previous one from June 12 last year, which declared Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations. The move comes after the IAEA found uranium traces at undeclared sites, raising concerns about Iran’s compliance with its nuclear commitments.
The resolution would require the IAEA to provide detailed findings on Iran’s nuclear activities, including the uranium traces discovered. Allies argue that Iran has not fully cooperated with the investigation, undermining international efforts to ensure nuclear transparency. The UN Security Council would then consider further actions, potentially including sanctions or diplomatic pressure.
Iran has consistently denied allegations of nuclear proliferation, stating that its program remains peaceful and fully transparent. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between Iran and Western powers over nuclear oversight. The IAEA is expected to present its findings in the coming weeks, setting the stage for potential international consequences.
