Iran’s UN ambassador: Iran’s nuclear enrichment will ‘never stop’
IRAN, JUN 30 – Iran rejects U.S. and Israeli demands to halt uranium enrichment, citing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and recent intelligence indicating setbacks are measured in months, not years.
- Iran's UN ambassador Amir-Saeid Iravani declared on Sunday that Iran’s nuclear enrichment will never stop and is an inalienable right for peaceful energy under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
- This declaration followed a June 12 IAEA board resolution declaring Iran in breach of its obligations and Israel’s military strikes targeting Iran’s nuclear sites on the same day.
- Iran’s parliament has since suspended cooperation with the IAEA, which still has inspectors in Iran but without access to nuclear facilities, while Iran demands assurances against future attacks.
- US President Trump claims the strikes caused long-term damage, but a leaked US intelligence assessment estimates only a months-long setback, described as "a very serious level of damage" by IAEA’s Rafael Grossi.
- Iran’s stance and halted IAEA cooperation suggest continued nuclear activity, while regional tensions remain with ongoing conflict and hostage situations involving Israel and Hamas.
