The United States has submitted a draft resolution to the IAEA calling on Iran to clarify the fate of its damaged nuclear sites and its stockpiles of enriched uranium.
This text, discussed by the 35 members of the agency's Board of Governors, demands that Tehran provide detailed information on the location of nuclear materials and the condition of its facilities affected by recent strikes. It also calls for full access for inspectors to verify this data.
This American initiative comes amid strong diplomatic tensions between Washington and Tehran, while discussions are underway on a possible extension of the ceasefire and a partial resumption of nuclear dialogue.
Iran has expressed its displeasure with increasing international pressure and has previously responded to similar resolutions by reducing its cooperation with the IAEA or intensifying certain nuclear activities.
The draft resolution does not explicitly mention referring the matter to the UN Security Council, although this option has been raised by some diplomats. Such a development could, however, further exacerbate tensions between the various powers involved.
This new initiative risks complicating ongoing diplomatic efforts between the United States and Iran, while the regional situation remains extremely unstable, particularly due to conflicts related to strikes in Iran and persistent tensions in the Middle East.
