Iran and several other countries issued a joint statement in reaction to the passing of an anti-Iranian resolution at the International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors (IAEA BoG) on Thursday, Mehr reports.
Iran, Russia, Belarus, China, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Zimbabwe issued a joint statement after the approval of the anti-Iranian resolution by the IAEA BoG.
“Today, Thursday Nov. 20, the anti-Iranian resolution drafted by the three European countries Germany, France and the United Kingdom, as well as the United States, under pressure from Israeli regime was approved at the board.
This non-binding and political resolution, which was approved with 19 votes in favor, 12 abstentions and 3 votes against, accused Iran of not adhering to its safeguards obligations, without mentioning the continuous cooperation of the Islamic Republic of Iran with the IAEA.
The resolution did not say anything about the illegal aggression of the United States and the Zionist regime against Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities in June; facilities that have been continuously inspected by the IAEA inspectors.
Also, the IAEA and its Director General himself have failed to even condemn the blatant and illegal aggression.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has reacted to the passing of the anti-Iran resolution at the IAEA Board of Governors drafted by the US and three European states, saying that Cairo Agreement is over.
In a post on his X account on Thursday, the top Iranian diplomat reacted to the illegal and unjustified action of three European countries and the United States in drafting an anti-Iranian resolution to the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA BoG), saying that the Cairo agreement between Iran and the IAEA has officially ended.
Iran had already warned against the passing of the resolution.
Yesterday, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi confirmed that the Agency’s inspectors have returned to Iran and have done inspections at facilities not affected by the June attacks.
Iran has said that the IAEA inspections were continuing their operation at the non-bombed sites.
“By taking this action and ignoring Iran’s interactions and goodwill, these countries are invalidating Agency and its independence and disrupting the process of interactions and cooperation between the Agency and Iran,” Araghchi added in his Thursday post, which is written in the Farsi language.
“Although the Cairo Agreement was no longer a basis for Iran-IAEA safeguards relations after the illegal action of three European countries in the UN Security Council in returning the cancelled Security Council resolutions, today it was announced in an official letter to the IAEA Director General that the agreement is no longer valid and is considered terminated,” the Iranian minister concluded.
