Mohammad Eslami said: "Due to his ambitions and strong desire to obtain the position of Secretary-General of the United Nations, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency is trying to gain the consent of a few specific countries and take steps towards their goals."
According to Ashura News, quoting ISNA, Mohammad Eslami, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, in an interview with Khabar Sima, referring to the political approach of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s reports, said: “The Director General of the Agency, due to his ambitions and strong desire to gain the position of Secretary General of the United Nations, is trying to gain the satisfaction of a few specific countries and take steps towards their goals.”
** Iran’s activities have been and are under the supervision of the Agency
In another part of the interview, he stated: “The International Atomic Energy Agency has always had access to our activities and has been monitoring them. Time does not allow them to inspect further!”
Eslami said: “The Europeans are looking for excuses to prevent Iran from using the opportunity of the tenth year of the JCPOA to resolve its nuclear file.”
He noted: “A significant part of the reports published by the Agency are not based on inspectors’ data and observations, but are the outcome of a political process.”
In another part of his speech, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said: Iran is a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and is committed to fully implementing the Safeguards Agreement. Wherever it is subject to supervision according to the safeguards regulations, it is covered by the Agency's cameras and regular inspections are carried out there.
He continued: Safeguards and the NPT are part of the inherent duties of every country that is a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency. The Islamic Republic of Iran has also continued and will continue to cooperate fully and transparently within the framework of these two documents.
Eslami clarified: According to the official report published by the Agency in 2024, more than 4,050 inspections of Iranian facilities have been carried out. Also, about 135 approved inspectors from different countries are permanently present in Iran and carry out their monitoring activities.
** Enrichment is Iran's red line
In another part of this televised interview, he emphasized that enrichment is Iran's red line and said: "No one can say that Iran does not have the right to enrich."
Emphasizing that nuclear activities in Iran are carried out within a specific framework, in compliance with international requirements and regulations, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization added: "Without enrichment, the fuel cycle will not be complete and the possibility of conducting advanced research will also be lost."
In another part of his speech, Eslami said: "Our report for submission to the Agency and the Board of Governors will be published tomorrow and will also be made available to China and Russia."
Mohammad Eslami added: "Before the revolution, the Americans also said not to enter the fuel cycle, and then Iran followed up and said that a consortium for nuclear fuel should be formed, but not in Iran but in Europe. This consortium was formed in France, but as soon as it was formed, they said that a non-European country cannot be a member of it." Then, to solve this problem, they formed an Iranian-French company, and that company became a member of the consortium, and they received a billion dollars in funding from the Shah's government, but this consortium had no benefit for Iran, and after the revolution, it was deprived of it in the first place. That company still exists, but they took our money and took it away, and it was of no use to us.
