BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 30. Iran’s relationship with the International Atomic Energy Agency continues, Iran’s Vice President and Chairman of the Atomic Energy Organization Mohammad Eslami told reporters following a Cabinet meeting in Tehran on October 30, Trend reports.
According to him, Iran’s relations with the IAEA are routine, and officials of the agency visit Iran.
Commenting on the development of nuclear activities in Iran, Eslami added that lasers play a significant role in all fields of science and technology. The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran uses lasers in biotechnology, nanotechnology, and heavy water production. This is considered an important turning point in the production of pharmaceuticals in Iran. The upcoming exhibition will showcase this achievement.
Meanwhile, in January 2016, Iran and the P5+1 group (the US, Russia, China, the UK, France, and Germany) implemented the Comprehensive Joint Plan of Action concerning Iran’s nuclear program.
In May 2018, the US announced its withdrawal from the deal and reimposed sanctions on Iran.
By the end of 2020, the Iranian parliament decided to pursue a strategic plan in the nuclear sector to counter the sanctions, leading to a suspension of additional steps and the Additional Protocol as per the nuclear agreement.
Consequently, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) faced a reduction in monitoring capabilities by 20–30 percent.
