Iran Not Complying with Nuclear Obligations, U.N. Watchdog Says

Iran said the International Atomic Energy Agency’s vote was politically motivated

The United Nations' nuclear watchdog agency has found Iran in breach of its nuclear obligations for the first time in 20 years, according to a copy of the adopted resolution seen by The Washington Post, in a move that could further heighten regional tensions and pave the way to the reimposition of sanctions that had been lifted after the 2015 nuclear deal.

Iran condemned the move as politically motivated and announced the establishment of a new enrichment site.

The diplomatic confrontation Thursday came as the United States draws down military and diplomatic personnel across the Middle East amid fears of an Israeli strike on Iran.
