AEOI spox: Iran-IAEA current issues being followed up as usual

According to the Iran press, Behrouz Kamalvandi, the spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, said that the country made the replacement of damaged cameras at the Tsai Complex in Karaj conditional on three preconditions: "judicial-security investigations into the dimensions of sabotage, condemnation of these sabotages by the IAEA and technical-security investigation of new cameras by Iran before installation."

Kamalvandi added: "Iran's voluntary action to issue a license to replace these cameras is not in the form of a new agreement that was made after obtaining these three preconditions, and today (Sunday) the process of technical-security inspections of cameras by Iran is scheduled to begin."

The spokesman of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said: "The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), as a specialized and technical institution, has continuous interactions with the International Atomic Energy Agency within the framework of safeguards, and these interactions should not take a political form.

Kamalvandi said: "In the media space and with the aim of psychological operations, the Western and Israeli media are trying very hard to politicize Iran's interactions with the International Atomic Energy Agency, and unfortunately there are tendencies in the IAEA in this regard."
