A new analysis by The Institute<\/a> for Science and International Security, published on September 5, 2024, highlights the Iranian regime’s continued violations of its nuclear safeguards under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). According to the report, critical “outstanding safeguards issues” remain unresolved after 21 months of investigation into the regime\u2019s potential nuclear weapons development. Despite calls for transparency, Tehran has failed to meet the demands of a June 2024 Board of Governors resolution urging cooperation with the IAEA.<\/p>\n One of the main concerns highlighted by the IAEA report is Iran’s continued refusal to provide clarity on the presence of undeclared nuclear materials at sites including Lavisan-Shian, Varamin, Marivan, and Turquz-Abad. This lack of cooperation has raised significant doubts about the peaceful nature of Iran\u2019s nuclear program. Additionally, the regime admitted to errors in its uranium declarations, leading to further discrepancies in nuclear material accounting at facilities like the Jaber Ibn Hayan Multipurpose Laboratory (JHL) and Isfahan\u2019s Uranium Conversion Facility<\/a> (UCF). The IAEA also discovered that more uranium than previously estimated was unaccounted for, sparking further concerns about Tehran\u2019s transparency.<\/p>\n Despite the ongoing violations, the regime has de-designated key IAEA inspectors and refused to reinstate them, obstructing the agency\u2019s ability to verify Iran\u2019s compliance with international safeguards. The IAEA report also notes Tehran’s non-compliance with Modified Code 3.1, which requires transparency in nuclear facility construction and information sharing.<\/p>\n Timeline of NCRI\u2019s Revelations To Prevent a Nuclear-armed #Iran<\/a>https:\/\/t.co\/fREkWBrIwJ<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/qXv6DSa8R4<\/a><\/p>\n — NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) August 9, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
