The IAEA Board of Governors adopted a resolution on June 12, 2025, expressing deep regret and concern over Iran's continued failure to cooperate fully with the Agency regarding its NPT Safeguards Agreement. The resolution highlights Iran's lack of technically credible explanations for uranium particles found at undeclared locations, its failure to provide information on the whereabouts of nuclear material and contaminated equipment, and its non-compliance with legal obligations such as implementing modified Code 3.1. The Board found that Iran's actions constitute non-compliance with its Safeguards Agreement and that the Agency is unable to verify that there has been no diversion of nuclear material, raising serious questions about the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program and its implications for international peace and security. The resolution strongly supports the Director General's efforts and calls upon Iran to urgently remedy its non-compliance and provide necessary cooperation to resolve all outstanding Safeguards issues.
