The United States, Britain, France, and Germany are pushing for the UN nuclear watchdog's board to report Iran to the UN Security Council, according to diplomatic sources. This would be the first such report in 20 years. The proposed resolution follows a 2019 declaration that Iran was breaching its non-proliferation obligations due to insufficient cooperation in an investigation into uranium traces discovered at undeclared sites.
The incident led to Israel initiating airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, which were subsequently targeted by the US. Iran has barred IAEA inspectors from returning to the bombed sites or verifying the status of its enriched uranium stockpiles, some of which reached 60% purity, nearing weapons-grade material.
