European Powers Push for IAEA Resolution on Iran's Nuclear Program

Amid escalating tensions, the IAEA chief visits Tehran to negotiate increased oversight as Iran expands uranium enrichment.

  • European nations, led by France, Britain, and Germany, are advocating for a new resolution at the IAEA to pressure Iran over its nuclear activities and lack of cooperation.
  • Iran has increased uranium enrichment to 60%, nearing the 90% required for nuclear weapons, raising international concerns.
  • IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi is in Tehran for high-level talks, seeking to restore monitoring access and address unresolved issues.
  • The diplomatic landscape is complicated by the return of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who previously withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal.
  • Iranian officials express willingness to revive negotiations, but geopolitical tensions, including conflicts involving Israel, complicate prospects for diplomacy.
