Iran's Envoy Says IAEA Board Resolution Will Have No Practical Effect
Reza Najafi, Iran's ambassador to international organizations in Vienna, accused Western states of politicizing the IAEA Board of Governors, according to IRNA.
Iran's permanent representative to the United Nations and other international organizations in Vienna, Reza Najafi, has criticized Western countries for what he described as politicizing the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors, according to a report by IRNA, Iran's state news agency.
Najafi said the recent resolution passed by the Board of Governors would not have any actual effect, IRNA reported from London.
The report did not specify the exact date of Najafi's remarks or the details of the resolution in question. IRNA attributed the comments directly to the ambassador without providing additional context on the IAEA session or the countries involved in drafting the resolution.
IRNA is Iran's official state-run news agency. The claims in this report are attributed to the source and have not been independently verified.
