Addressing the IAEA’s findings of “natural uranium particles of anthropogenic origin at a location in Iran not declared to the Agency”, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi emphasised that “to put deadlines [for an explanation from Iran] might not be the best idea”. “This would for me mean that we would be in a very... antagonistic relationship where basically one side would be resisting and then I as DG would need to be putting deadlines”, Grossi explained, adding that “time is always of the essence”.
