گزارش خبرنگار لارنس نورمن، وال‌ استریت ژورنال از توافق تازه ایران و آژانس انرژی اتمی

These increased inspections provide Iran with a straightforward leverage to threaten to cancel them if faced with a resolution of condemnation.

Several officials have now confirmed that Iran has indeed agreed to increased monitoring by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to ensure that Tehran's 60% enrichment does not lead to the diversion of fissile material or a sudden move toward weapons-grade levels.

These measures include more frequent inspections by the IAEA at the Fordow site and the presence of additional inspectors. Other enhanced monitoring measures have also been implemented.

A word of caution: These increased inspections give Iran a simple leverage to threaten to cancel them if faced with a resolution of condemnation. However, it is important to note that such an action would be considered a violation of fundamental safeguards commitments, not a violation of the JCPOA. Therefore, it would be a more serious issue. /Entekhab
