Referring to Iran’s nuclear activity, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi remarked that “I see every day through my inspectors how this problem is getting more and more relevant, and I'm choosing a word which is neutral. It’s an even more relevant problem every day”. He further emphasised: “I will never do anything in the verification area under political pretences or for political reasons. The IAEA has to do what it has to do… I’ve said it to my Iranian counterparts many times when they request that we look elsewhere”.
