AFP: Iran still abiding by nuclear deal terms: IAEA

Iran is sticking to the terms of its nuclear deal with world powers, a UN atomic watchdog report showed Thursday, despite ongoing uncertainty over its future.

The report from the International Atomic Energy Agency showed that Iran was still complying with the key parameters of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), agreed in 2015 by Iran and the US, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany.

It comes despite the future of the deal being thrown into doubt after US President Donald Trump withdrew from the pact in May and re-imposed US sanctions.

The latest report says the IAEA had had access "to all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit".

Update: Iran Continues to Comply With Nuclear Deal, U.N. Atomic Agency Says (WSJ).

WNU Editor: The language of the report is very revealing .... the IAEA had had access "to all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit". But they do not mention that all Iranian military sites that have been suspected of doing nuclear work in the past are off-limits to these inspectors.In short .... the inspectors are told by Tehran what sites they can visit, and that is it.
