IAEA has not disclosed Iran deal: Spokesman

21 Aug 2015 - 12:36


Tehran, August 21, IRNA – Spokesman of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) said on Thursday International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has so far remained committed to the agreement with Iran on not revealing the documents and information of the bilateral deal to a third party.

Behruz Kamalvandi rejected reports in certain foreign media as speculation alleging that Iran and the UN nuclear watchdog have agreed on the access to the information on the bilateral agreement.
Saying that there has been no breach of the IAEA's obligations under the bilateral deal, he said Iran's considerations are stipulated in the agreement which is being properly implemented.
Meanwhile, IAEA chief Yukia Amano said the agency's recent nuclear agreement with Iran to verify the peaceful nature of Tehran's nuclear program is technically sound.
Iran and the IAEA, he said in agreement, have agreed on a series of “separate arrangements” under the roadmap which are “confidential” and cannot be made public based on legal obligations.
The comments came two days after The Associated Press claimed that it has seen a document showing that the IAEA has allowed Iran to use its “own inspectors” to investigate a site which some claim is related to the country's nuclear program.
Later in the day, Iran’s envoy to the IAEA also slammed what he called attempts to undermine the Iran-IAEA agreement and the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) agreed between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries - the US, the UK, France, Russia, China plus Germany - on July 14.
'We anticipate that this media clamor will probably continue until the day the JCPOA is implemented and even after that,' said Reza Najafi in an interview with IRIB, adding, 'Such fabrications are meant to influence this process.”
The IAEA confirmed in mid-August that Iran has complied with the timeframe set in the roadmap and has given the nuclear body the information regarding its past nuclear activities.
