IAEA BoG Opens Meeting with Grossi’s Speech

International Atomic Energy Agency’s Board of Governors has started its quarterly meeting on Wednesday in Vienna with its Director General Rafael Grossi’s opening speech.
“Addressed the @IAEAorg Board of Governors this morning. Shared updates on #COP29, Iran, Ukraine, nuclear energy and fusion, #Atoms4Food, #RaysofHope, and more,” Grossi wrote in a post on X on Wednesday.
“However, during the high-level meetings between the Agency and Iran in Tehran on 14 November 2024, the possibility of Iran not further expanding its stockpile of uranium enriched up to 60% U-235 was discussed, including technical verification measures necessary for the Agency to confirm this, if implemented. On 16 November 2024, the Agency verified at Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant and at Fuel Enrichment Plant that Iran had begun implementation of preparatory measures aimed at stopping the increase of its stockpile of uranium enriched up to 60% U-235. Exchanges between the Agency and Iran on this matter are expected to continue,” the IAEA chief said in his Introductory Statement to the Board of Governors, according to the IAEA website.
