Iran will limit its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) over what it has called the organization’s “silence” regarding Israeli strikes, according to Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi.

“We have decided that, from now on, we will no longer announce the details of our nuclear activities to the Agency in advance. This is part of a review of the level of our cooperation, which will no longer be the same as before,” Gharibabadi told SNN, according to a report by RT on Saturday. “We have always maintained the most transparent peaceful nuclear program, but when the Agency and its Board of Governors remain silent in the face of Israeli aggression or issue resolutions influenced by political pressure, we can no longer maintain the same level of cooperation,” he added.

Without directly blaming Israel, the IAEA released a statement on Friday stressing that attacks on civilian nuclear sites are illegal under international law and calling for dialogue.

Former Biden Official Says Israel Has Committed War Crimes

Iran denies having a nuclear program. However, the country has responded to Israel’s attack by saying the bombing was tantamount to a declaration of war and launched its own retaliatory strikes against Israel. Tehran also suspended nuclear negotiations with the US; the next round had originally been scheduled for Sunday.

These strikes started when Israel attacked Iran “preemptively” at the end of last week.

Trump told Fox News that this attack was not a surprise and didn’t come out of the blue.
