IAEA says Iran removes excess centrifuges from Fordow plant

By Trend

The International Atomic Energy Agency has verified the removal of excess centrifuges and infrastructure from Iran’s Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant to the Fuel Enrichment Plant at Natanz in January, where they are now stored under Agency's continuous monitoring.

The Agency has been verifying and monitoring the implementation by Iran of its nuclear-related commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) for more than a year, IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano said during a meeting of the Board of Governors, IAEA’s website reported.

“You have received my report on Verification and monitoring in the Islamic Republic of Iran in light of United Nations Security Council resolution 2231 (2015),” he said, adding that ”my Report, provides more information in relation to Iran’s LEU stockpile, which was facilitated
by clarifications agreed by the Joint Commission established under the JCPOA".

He added that the Agency continues to verify the non-diversion of nuclear material declared by Iran under its Safeguards Agreement.

“Evaluations regarding the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran continue”.

Iran and the P5+1 Group, including US, France, UK, Russia, China plus Germany reached a nuclear deal, which implemented in January 2016. The deal lifted nuclear-related sanctions on Iran.
