Germany has urged Iran to resume cooperation with the United Nations nuclear watchdog amid concerns over rising tensions with Israel, warning that Tehran’s recent moves send the “wrong signal” and risk derailing a fragile ceasefire.
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul called on Iran to restore its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) following the Iranian parliament’s recent move to suspend it. Speaking at a press conference with Canadian counterpart Anita Anand, Wadephul said Iran must clearly show it is not seeking nuclear weapons.
He welcomed the current ceasefire between Iran and Israel and said it creates a rare opportunity to pursue diplomacy. Wadephul urged Tehran to use this moment to commit transparently to non-proliferation and reverse the legislative path that limits IAEA access.
