The authorities of France, Britain and Germany, in a joint statement by the three countries, considered that “Iran’s actions exacerbate the situation and make it difficult to return to the full implementation of the nuclear agreement.”

The three countries condemned “the steps taken by Iran following the decision of the Board of Governors of the Atomic Energy Agency and call on Tehran to stop the nuclear escalation.”

Earlier, the director of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, said that Iran “will stop the operation of 27 cameras and other surveillance equipment belonging to the agency from its nuclear facilities, and this action, of course, represents a serious problem.” our ability to continue working there, as well as the surveillance cameras that Tehran removed from some of its nuclear facilities that were located in locations associated with centrifuges.”

Gorsi pointed out that “removing the chambers means Tehran can produce centrifuges without our knowledge, which means less transparency,” stressing that “failing to restore oversight within weeks would deal a death blow to the nuclear deal with Iran.”
