Key Facts

  • The US will present a resolution at the IAEA Board of Governors session in Vienna demanding Iran urgently address non-compliance and grant inspectors access.
  • The IAEA has lacked access to Iran's uranium stockpiles since June 2025, when Israel began airstrikes on Iran.

US Initiative at UN

The United States intends to bring Iran's nuclear program before the UN Security Council, citing Tehran's alleged refusal to cooperate with International Atomic Energy Agency experts. The proposal will be presented at the IAEA Board of Governors session in Vienna, according to Bloomberg. The resolution will demand that Iran 'urgently rectify non-compliance' and provide inspectors access to verify that nuclear material is used exclusively for peaceful purposes.

IAEA Access Gap

The IAEA has not had access to Iran's uranium stockpiles since June 2025, when Israel began airstrikes on Iran. President Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that the ongoing military campaign against Iran aims to prevent the development of nuclear weapons. Last week, Trump said the US is considering new strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, including the site near Natanz under Kolang Gaz-La mountain.
