The Iran Project : Head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says Iran and the agency need to engage in constructive and continued talks to resolve issues pertaining to Iran’s nuclear program.
Rafael Grossi, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, reacts prior to the start of the quarterly Board of Governors meeting in Vienna, Austria, March 3, 2025.
According to The Iran Project, Rafael Mariano Grossi made the remarks at a press conference in Vienna on Monday after the IAEA Board of Governors meeting.
He said previous reports have indicated that many issues are interconnected and some can be deemed more important than others.
It is impossible to solve all issues in a single action; rather, the sides need constructive and consistent efforts in all fields, he added.
For example, the IAEA chief claimed, uranium particles discovered in certain facilities and specific places or the level of Iran’s uranium enrichment activities show that there are various issues between the two sides.
“What we need is answers and constructive relations. Enough talk, we must move forward and achieve results. We have always put ways before Iran for bilateral cooperation,” he said.
Grossi said his talks with Iranian authorities in Tehran in November showed that the country seeks to cooperate with the IAEA but unfortunately certain issues (anti-Iran resolutions) have prevented the sides from moving in this direction.
