In an explanatory memo released on Saturday, the Iranian Atomic Energy Agency (AEOI) addressed the latest report by Director Rafael Grossi, Director of IAEA, entitled “NPT Safeguards Agreement with Iran’s Islamic Republic” on May 31, 2025, and to the governor of the agency, the latest report from Director Rafael Grossi, entitled “NPT Safeguards Agreement.”
The confidential IAEA report allegedly raised concerns about a stockpile of uranium 60% pure, claiming Iran could not report nuclear activity in three undeclared locations.
“The lack of evidence of diversion to military targets regarding the Director’s report confirms again the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program. There is no reliable evidence to prove that the remaining issues pose a risk of proliferation,” AEOI said.
As stated in the report, the memo explained: “Iran continues to work with the agency on matters related to the routine implementation of safeguards, and agents are making extensive verification efforts in Iran that are commensurate with Iran’s nuclear fuel cycle and activities.”
Iran’s atomic energy organization emphasized that the IAEA should employ reliable sources for its assessment to maintain the objectivity of the institution.
“It is an established expectation that the institution’s assessment is only validated and based on reliable, uncontroversial sources. Relying on unverified information derived from open source or information provided by third parties known to the Secretariat is inconsistent with principles of objectivity, fairness and professionalism.”
Emphasizing that inclusion of some unrelated issues in the IAEA report is inconsistent with the professionalism, objectivity and fairness of the agency, the Nuclear Agency states:
The AEOI also emphasized that all Iranian nuclear material and activities have been “fully declared and verified by the agency.”
Iranian officials have previously condemned the IAEA’s confidential report, warning that politically motivated movements against the Islamic Republic could derail Tehran’s cooperation with the United Nations nuclear watchdog group.
The agency has imposed multiple politically contaminated accusations against the Islamic Republic’s nuclear file over the past few years, despite its own reports that are often proven peace in Tehran’s nuclear program.
