Iran hardens the position against IAEA and its leader following American-Israeli attacks | Nuclear weapons

Tehran rejected Rafael Grossi’s request to visit nuclear installations bombed by Israel and the United States during the conflict.

Iran has adopted an unequivocal position against the International Atomic Energy Energy Agency (IAEA), the country’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Abbas Araghchi, briefly rejecting the demand of his Grosi chief Rafael to visit nuclear installations bombed by Israel and the United States during a conflict of 12 days earlier this month.

“The insistence of gross to visit the bombed sites under the pretext of the guarantees is meaningless and perhaps even ill-intentioned,” said Araghchi on X on Monday. “Iran reserves the right to take measures to defend its interests, its inhabitants and its sovereignty.”

In tandem, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron whom Tehran had interrupted cooperation with the IAEA because of what he called the “destructive” behavior of Grosi to Iran, said his office.

“The measures taken by the members of the Parliament … is a natural response to the unjustified, non -constructive and destructive conduct of the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency,” Pezeshkian told Macron during a telephone call, according to a presidency statement.

The Resul Serdar of Al Jazeera, reporting from Tehran, said that Iranian management clearly indicates that IAEA is an “international body with defined responsibilities and that these responsibilities are not political but technical”. But, he added, Tehran considers the nuclear agency as an international organization “under immense (political) pressure in Israel and the United States”.

Iranian legislators voted on Wednesday in favor of a bill to suspend cooperation with the IAEA, citing Attack of Israel on June 13 against Iran And Strike later by the United States on nuclear installations.

A ceasefire between Iran and Israel taken root on June 24.

Since the start of the conflict, Iranian officials have strongly criticized the IAEA not only for not having condemned Israeli and American strikes, but also for having adopted a resolution on June 12, accusing Tehran of non-compliance of its nuclear obligations, the day before the attack on Israel.

“The anger of Iranian public opinion”

Meanwhile, France, Germany and Great Britain have decreed “threats” against Grosi.

“France, Germany and the United Kingdom condemn threats against the director general of IAEA Rafael Grosi and reiterate our total support for the agency,” said foreign ministers, Jean-Noel Barrot, Johann Wadephul and David Lammy in a joint statement.

“We call on the Iranian authorities to abstain from all stages to stop cooperation with the IAEA,” they added. “We urge Iran to immediately resume complete cooperation in accordance with its legally binding obligations and to take all the necessary measures to ensure the safety and safety of the AIEA personnel.”

Although none specified the threats to which they were referring, the newspaper of Kayhan ultra-conservative from Iran recently said that Grosi was an Israeli spy and should be executed.

Iran insisted that no threat was laid against Grosi or the agency inspectors.

On Monday, at his weekly press conference on Monday, the spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Esmaeil Baghaei, said that the decision of the Iranian Parliament to stop cooperation with the IAEA reflected “the concern and the anger of Iranian public opinion”.

He also criticized the American and European powers for having maintained what he described as a “political approach” towards the Iran nuclear program.

At least 935 people were killed during the recent conflict with Israel, Iranian judicial spokesperson Asghar Jahangir said, citing the latest forensic data. The deceased included 132 women and 38 children, added Jahangir.

Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Qatari Foreign Ministry said that the country was involved in efforts to conclude an agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue and a guarantee against a return to climbing by all parties.

Pezeshkian apologized to the Qatari people in a phone call to the Emir of Qatar Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani after the Targeting the Air Base Al UdeidThe largest American military base in the Middle East, he added.
