The Iranian Foreign Ministry on Nov. 21 condemned an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors resolution that presses Tehran to meet its nuclear safeguards obligations, calling it “illegal and unjustified.”

The resolution, adopted on Nov. 20, said that Iran is noncompliant with the longstanding Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) Safeguards Agreement that requires it to let IAEA inspectors verify that its nuclear material is not being used to build weapons.
