Iran Suspends Cooperation with International Atomic Energy Agency, President Pezeshkian Confirms

In a significant development, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced the suspension of Iran’s cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The decision marks a sharp escalation in the ongoing tensions surrounding Iran’s nuclear program. According to President Pezeshkian, the move comes as a response to what Tehran describes as “unfair treatment” and persistent pressure from international bodies.

The suspension will limit the IAEA’s access to certain nuclear sites and impede the agency’s monitoring activities, raising concerns among global powers about the potential impact on regional security and non-proliferation efforts. This latest action follows months of strained negotiations and increasing disagreements over Iran’s compliance with nuclear agreements.

Experts warn that this suspension could complicate diplomatic efforts aimed at reviving talks and ensuring transparency in Iran’s nuclear activities. Meanwhile, the international community continues to call for restraint and dialogue to prevent further escalation. The coming weeks are expected to be critical as stakeholders assess the implications of Iran’s decision on global nuclear stability.
