MOSCOW, March 24. /TASS/. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has effectively acknowledged that the strike on the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant posed a threat to the physical integrity of the facility, Russian Permanent Representative to Vienna-based international organizations Mikhail Ulyanov told a briefing.
He noted that the United States’ actions against Iran have dealt a heavy blow to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
TASS has summed up his key statements.
The IAEA has acknowledged that the strike on the Bushehr NPP threatened its physical integrity.
Several days ago, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi, for the first time, "clearly linked the events unfolding in Iran to the seven pillars of nuclear safety": "In effect, he thereby pointed out that these pillars are being violated. This primarily concerns the first pillar, referring to the physical integrity of nuclear facilities."
