IAEA: Iran will extend inspection deal, won’t delete footage of nuclear sites
(Worthy News) – The UN nuclear watchdog and Iran have agreed to extend an understanding to monitor Tehran’s activities by one month, the agency said Monday, with talks ongoing in Vienna try to save the 2015 nuclear deal.
“The equipment and the verification and the monitoring activities that we agreed will continue as they are now for one month expiring on June 24, 2021,” International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director-general Rafael Grossi told a news conference following overnight talks.
Iran’s hardline parliament in December approved a bill that would suspend part of UN inspections of its nuclear facilities if European signatories did not provide relief from oil and banking sanctions by February. The IAEA struck a three-month deal with Iran in February to have it hold the surveillance images, with Tehran threatening to delete them afterward if no deal had been reached.
