UN nuclear watchdog confirms Iranian compliance with 2015 nuclear deal
A report by the United Nations’ atomic watchdog has revealed that Iran continues to comply with the terms of its nuclear deal with world powers.
According to the quarterly report of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran kept to the caps placed on its uranium enrichment levels and enriched uranium stocks as part of the deal.
IAEA inspectors were given access to all sites in the country requiring a visit to verify Iran’s ongoing compliance with the restrictions, the report said.

“The production rate [of enriched uranium] is constant. There is no change whatsoever,” a senior diplomat told reporters.
The Vienna-based UN nuclear watchdog has repeatedly confirmed Iran’s compliance with the deal despite a US withdrawal from the landmark pact, signed in 2015 in Austria’s capital, Vienna.
