Russian MFA: Iran is committed to its obligations under the IAEA

04 March 2020


Iran remains committed to its obligations within the framework of the IAEA, and there is no need to talk about any violations in this sense,


Vladimir Yermakov, Director of the Department for Nonproliferation and Arms Control (DNAC) of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said RIA Novosti.


"In any case, Iran remains committed to its obligations under the IAEA, and therefore it is not necessary to talk about any violations on the part of Iran. Iran is interested in the closest interaction with the IAEA, this is the foundation on which the entire policy of Iran is built ... There may be various speculations, but the main thing remains that Iran strictly adheres to its obligations to the IAEA. Any assessments of this that may appear in the media can be considered as speculation, " the diplomat said, in particular.


The day before, the IAEA report was published in the media, according to which the reserves of low-enriched uranium in Iran exceeded a ton. As part of the "nuclear deal", this limit was 202.8 kilograms.
