Mohammad Eslami: Damaged nuclear sites have been reorganized
The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran says that the damaged nuclear sites and centers have been reorganized and that the activities of these centers are being carried out in accordance with the Strategic Action Law for the Lifting of Sanctions.
In an interview with domestic media, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran announced the "reorganization" of "damaged" nuclear sites and centers, saying: "The activities of these centers are being carried out quantitatively and qualitatively in accordance with the Strategic Action Law for the Lifting of Sanctions."
Referring to the JCPOA revival talks in Vienna, Mohammad Eslami stated that “technical issues and discussions” have been completed and clarified, and only political issues remain “which are related to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”
Four days earlier, Behrouz Kamalvandi, spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, had announced that if an agreement was not reached in Vienna, “the information from the Agency’s surveillance cameras will probably be deleted.”
On April 17, referring to “sabotage” at nuclear sites, he said: “Unfortunately, due to the terrorist operation at the Karaj Tsai, we were forced to tighten security measures somewhat, meaning we had to move a significant portion of the machines. There was also a remnant, which we transferred to Natanz and before that to Isfahan.”
On April 15, Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, announced the installation of surveillance cameras by the organization in the Natanz nuclear facility after the transfer of centrifuge production machines from Karaj to Natanz regarding the verification of the implementation of the JCPOA.
In response to these remarks, Mohammad Reza Ghaebi, the head of the Islamic Republic's permanent mission to international organizations, emphasized that the Agency still does not have any access to the memory information of the installed cameras and that until Iran returns to implementing the JCPOA, the relevant information will not be made available to the Agency and will be stored with Iran.
