Esmaeil Baghaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, stated that the usual collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is at risk due to current security threats. This development heightens apprehensions about the continuity of nuclear inspections which play a vital role in monitoring Iran’s nuclear initiatives.
