Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, complained to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Yukiya Amano that the visit by United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley was intended to sow doubt about the nuclear agreement; the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), The Washington Post reported.
“Even before the visit takes place, the way it is planned and publicized and the signal that it sends have notable detrimental consequences for the successful implementation of the JCPOA,” Zarif wrote in a letter to Amano.
Haley dismissed Iran’s implication that she is searching for ammunition.
“I find it interesting that Iran is so worried about me going to Vienna,” she said. “If they don’t have anything to hide, they shouldn’t be concerned about me asking questions of the IAEA.”
Iran warned Tuesday that it needs only five days to ramp up uranium enrichment to a level at which the material could be used for a nuclear weapon.
“If there is a plan for a reaction and a challenge, we will definitely surprise them,” said Iranian nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi. “If we make the determination, we are able to resume 20 percent-enrichment in at most five days.”
