Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Yukiya Amano said that Iran`s nuclear deal. also known as JCPOA. represents a significant gain for the nuclear verification.
Since implementation of the JCPOA began in January 2016. we have been verifying and monitoring Iran’s implementation of its nuclear-related commitments under the agreement. Amano said in a statement to Preparatory Committee for the 2020 Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).
`Today IAEA inspectors have more information about Iran’s nuclear program.` said the IAEA chief. adding that Iran is provisionally implementing the additional protocol to its safeguards agreement with the Agency.
“The IAEA will continue to implement safeguards in Iran with a view to being able to draw. in due course. what we call the ‘broader conclusion’ that all nuclear material remains in peaceful activities. This is likely to take many years.”
