IAEA says Iran is sticking to nuclear deal
(VOVWORLD) - Iran has remained within the main restrictions on its nuclear activities imposed by the 2015 deal, despite continued uncertainty over its future, a confidential report by the UN atomic watchdog agency indicated Thursday.
The report says the IAEA has had access "to all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit". However, the agency emphasised the importance of "timely and proactive cooperation in providing such access" on Iran's part. The report said Iran's stockpiles of low-enriched uranium and heavy water have both slightly increased since the last report in May, but were still under the limits agreed in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) signed between Tehran and world powers in 2015.
The report came after the US withdrew from the deal and reimposed economic sanctions on Iran.
