Iran IAEA reach deal on inspections
Subject: International developments
Context: Diplomatic negotiations reached a fruitful outcome with the IAEA announcing a temporary deal for inspection of nuclear facilities in Iran.
Concept:
- It is a 3-month arrangement for inspection of Iranian facilities.
- However, it will not have same access as before after a law comes into force in Iran.
- This is significant amidst recent USA withdrawal from Iran Nuclear deal.
- However, Iran will temporarily suspend so-called “voluntary transparency measures” (inspections of non-nuclear sites, including military sites suspected of nuclear-related activity).
