IAEA Acting Director-General Cornel Feruta visited Iran for discussions with senior Iranian foreign ministry and nuclear officials. According to the IAEA, there was “an emphasis on the ongoing interactions between the IAEA and Iran related to the implementation of the Safeguards Agreement and Additional Protocol”, with Feruta emphasising the need for “full and timely cooperation by Iran”. Foreign Minister Zarif told him that Iran’s incremental breaches of JCPOA commitments were “in response to the European sides’ failure to fulfil theirs”.
