UN Nuclear Chief to Iran: Cooperate or Face New Crisis
(Reuters) John Irish - International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi said Tuesday, "We have been requesting some information and access from Iran but we haven't been getting the information we require....What this means is that Iran is curtailing the ability of the agency to do its work." "I sincerely hope that Iran will listen to us and listen to the voice of the international community at the board of governors and assess that it is in their own interest to cooperate with us. We don't have a political agenda; we simply are requesting them to comply with their obligations. We will be walking towards a crisis (if not)." After Iran failed to answer the IAEA's questions about past nuclear activities at three sites and denying it access to two of them, Grossi said, "These sites have been judged by our technical experts as indispensable for us to visit to provide the necessary guarantees that nothing is happening which shouldn't be happening there."
