Washington exploits damage to increase pressure through the UN nuclear watchdog.

On Tuesday, the Permanent Mission of Iran to the United Nations and Other International Organizations in Vienna (PMIRAN) criticized the draft resolution submitted by the United States to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) against the Persian nation’s nuclear program.

“It is ridiculous for the U.S. – the aggressor – to submit a draft resolution to the Board of Governors on Iran peaceful nuclear activities. They are shedding crocodile tears for the problems created by themselves; imputing ‘non-cooperation’ where their aggression has rendered materially, logically and legally impossible to implement safeguards in the so-called ‘obliterated facilities’!

“The aggression and continuous threats that gave rise to the current exceptional circumstances have not ceased. Indeed, as recently as June 7, 2026 — the very day on which the draft resolution was informally circulated in Vienna — the U.S. president publicly threatened to attack Iran’s nuclear sites again.”

“U.S is begging for adoption of an unnecessary provocative resolution by the Board including for verification of scope of destruction caused by their own aggression. This looks like a pattern of justification for another aggression, as in June and November 2025,” the Iranian diplomatic mission stated.

The Iranian diplomats clarified that the U.S. material hostilities and acts of sabotage have severely damaged the country’s technological and civilian infrastructure, making it impossible to properly implement the IAEA safeguards agreement.

This new U.S. diplomatic aggression comes amid a climate of continuous harassment against Iran’s nuclear program, characterized by physical and cyberattacks attributed to close intelligence cooperation between the United States and Israel.

Iran reaffirmed that it will not yield to blackmail by Western powers, denouncing that the U.S. seeks to perversely use the consequences of its own military vandalism as a pretext for pressure to force political concessions within the IAEA and prolong the illegal economic blockade against the Iranian population.
