Stalling Oversight: IAEA's Waning Influence in Iran's Nuclear Landscape | Science-Environment
- IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi called for inspectors to return to Iran following Israeli and U.S. strikes on nuclear sites on June 13, 2025.
- The strikes occurred amid reduced IAEA oversight after the U.S. withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal in 2018, which led Iran to limit inspection access and scale back cooperation.
- Grossi acknowledged that Iran could rebuild damaged nuclear infrastructure and emphasized the need for renewed inspections as over 400 kg of uranium enriched to 60% remain under Iran’s control.
- Grossi stated, "nuclear facilities should never be attacked," and highlighted the diplomatic importance of resuming cooperation to resolve disputes over Iran’s nuclear activities.
- Iran’s parliament approved a bill to suspend cooperation with the IAEA, reflecting increased tensions and raising concerns about the agency’s ability to monitor Iran’s uranium enrichment and non-proliferation compliance.
