The US State Department has warned Iran that the recent dismantling of 27 International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) surveillance cameras jeopardizes the potential return to the nuclear agreement. A spokesperson expressed that news of Iran reducing transparency is extremely regrettable and could complicate efforts to fully implement the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Despite these tensions, the US will continue seeking a mutual restoration of the deal, which aims to curtail Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting international sanctions. Concerns are growing about the verification of Iran’s nuclear advancements amidst stalled negotiations.
