"We are not taking this action to escalate a confrontation for political purposes. Iran says its nuclear aims are wholly peaceful. It is enriching to up to 60% purity, close to the roughly 90% of weapons-grade. Since Washington withdrew from the 2015 deal in 2018 under then-President Donald Trump and reimposed sanctions, Tehran has breached many of the deal's restrictions on its nuclear activities, including enrichment. Clearly #ViennaTalks taught them nothing: pressuring Tehran entails escalation," Russia's mission to the IAEA tweeted before the vote. "Sadly some Board members don't get the sensitivity of the moment, pushing for untimely initiatives like anti-#Iran resolution.

Iran has now also told the agency it plans to install two more such cascades of the uranium-enriching machines, which are much more effective than first-generation IR-1 centrifuges, the only ones the 2015 deal allows Iran to enrich with at the Natanz plant. Later the IAEA informed member states in a report seen by Reuters that Iran had started installing a cascade, or cluster, of advanced IR-6 centrifuges at its underground enrichment plant at Natanz, a longstanding plan it had not acted on for months. One European diplomat said the move was "a relatively modest escalation in the grand scheme of things but perhaps an initial warning shot in advance of the resolution being adopted". The agency hopes it will gain access to that data, which remains with Iran, at a later date. The IAEA has, however, not had access to the data collected by such cameras or the OLEM for more than a year.

From today, relevant authorities have ordered that surveillance cameras of the Online Enrichment Monitor (OLEM) be shut down," Iranian state TV said, referring to cameras trained on a machine that measures enrichment levels in real time. "So far, the IAEA has not only been ungrateful for Iran's extensive cooperation but has also considered it as a duty. Just hours before the closed-door vote at the International Atomic Energy Agency's headquarters, Iran announced a move that diplomats said was most likely either a shot across the bows before more drastic action or a limited early retaliation.
