International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Gersi said on Thursday (June 26, 2025) that Iran had earlier given a very limited support to the teams monitoring their nuclear program and had no transparency during the investigation.

IAEA chief Rafael Gossi said this a few days after the US bunker Buster bomb was dropped at three Iranian nuclear enrichment plants. They said that they were cooperating, but it was limited. There were many questions that Iran was not adequately answering.

‘Iran’s reply not technically reliable’
In the Radio France International Show, he said that uranium marks were found in places where they should not have been found and their (Iran) answers were not technically reliable. There was no transparency there.

The US was talking on the new nuclear security agreement with Iran. When it became clear that the Israeli missiles could not reach Iran’s Fordo enrichment facility, built at a distance of hundreds of meters under a mountain, the US attacked with a bunker buster bomb. However, this attack happened after the Israeli claim that Iran is on the verge of nuclear weapons.

‘Iran probably had materials to make 10 nuclear weapons’
Asked whether Iran is actually close to making nuclear weapons, which was claimed by US President Donald Trump. Regarding this, Groxy admitted that Iran probably had material and technology to make 10 nuclear weapons. He further said that we cannot say that Iran did not have nuclear weapons.

He said that Iran’s nuclear program has suffered heavy damage due to GBU-37 bombs. For this reason, Centrifuse in Fordo nuclear enrichment plants is probably no longer on. However, the IAEA chief kept a distance from US President Donald Trump’s claim that Iran’s nuclear sites have been destroyed. Instead, he said that its capabilities have reduced.

IAEA Chief said the attacks have caused a lot of damage to Natanj, Isfahan and Fordo, where Iran’s uranium enrichment activities were focused. He further said that there are other nuclear sites in Iran which have not been affected. I can only tell you that there is a lot of damage.

Iran on IAEA: The Iranian Parliament has approved the bill to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAA), the Iranian Parliament. Reuters have given this information by quoting Nurnues. Tehran’s Tasnim news agency on the matter, citing the committee spokesperson Ibrahim Regai on Monday (22 June 2025), stated that according to the bill, monitoring cameras will be installed, allowing inspection and presenting reports to IAEA will be suspended until the safety of nuclear facilities is guaranteed. However, Parliament still has to approve the bill in a full session in this regard.

The relations between Iran and IAEA have been tense since the early 2000s, especially after the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) i.e. Iran Nuclear Agreement. However, after the US exiting the agreement in 2018, Iran increased uranium enrichment by violating several conditions. IAEA’s cameras and inspections have been the only reliable sources of monitoring Iran’s nuclear program. Now with the introduction of this bill, it is clear that Iran is taking steps towards retreating from transparency.

Iran’s parliament has passed a bill halting cooperation with the IAEA.

Attack on Iran’s nuclear bases
The US and Israel Iran attacked nuclear bases during the Iran-Israel War. Attacked and destroyed Isfan, Fordo and Natanj. On this, America claimed that they ruined all the materials. However, Iran refused to accept it. At the same time, the US Vice President gave a statement that Iran has so much goods left that he can make 9 atomic bombs.

Israel Iran War: IAEA’s big statement has come on the attacks targeted by Iran’s nuclear facility by Israel. The International Atomic Energy Agency said on Tuesday (June 17, 2025) that Israel has caused major damage to the Natanj nuclear campus, one of the most secret and safe nuclear facilities of Iran.

The United Nations atomic institution said that earlier it was believed that the Natanj nuclear campus is a feature that Israel could not successfully target the Earth’s surface, but according to the data available with them, Israel has directly attacked the underground part of this facility.

In a post on social media platform X, IAEA said that based on the analysis of the high-resolution satellite image collected after Friday attacks, IAEA has identified that the direct impact of the attacks on the underground promotion hall in Natanj is visible.
