IAEA Cannot Conclude that All Nuclear Material in Iran Is in Peaceful Activities
(International Atomic Energy Agency) Yukiya Amano - IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano said in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Thursday: "As far as Iran is concerned, the Agency is able to verify the non-diversion of nuclear material declared to us by Iran under its Safeguards Agreement. But we are not in a position to provide credible assurance about the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran, and therefore to conclude that all nuclear material in Iran is in peaceful activities." "With the cooperation of Iran, the Agency needs to clarify issues with possible military dimensions to the satisfaction of Member States. Also, Iran needs to implement the additional protocol so that the Agency can provide credible assurance about the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran."
