West is pushing for an anti-Iran resolution
Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baqaei’s reaction came to a question where he was asked that the western nations were pushing for an anti-Iran resolution at the IAEA’s Board of Governors meeting in Vienna.
US and European countries abused IAEA for political purposes
Baqaei said Iran had taken measures in the past in coordination with IAEA, but the US, and the three European nations have abused the agency for their political purposes.
The foreign ministry spokesperson reiterated that Iran has been committed from the beginning in its interaction with the IAEA regarding the Non-Proliferation Treaty and Comprehensive Safeguard Agreements.
It is reportedly said that France, Britain, Germany, and the United States are seeking a draft resolution against Iran for “non-compliance” with safeguard obligations.
