Here’s more to know about the IAEA, its inspections of Iran and the deals — and dangers — at play.The IAEA was created in 1957. The idea for it grew out of a 1953 speech given by U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower at the U.N., in which he urged the creation of an agency to monitor the world’s nuclear stockpiles to ensure that “the miraculous inventiveness of man shall not be dedicated to his death, but consecrated to his life.”
Broadly speaking, the agency verifies the reported stockpiles of member nations. Those nations are divided into three categories.The vast majority are nations with so-called “comprehensive safeguards agreements” with the IAEA, states without nuclear weapons that allow IAE monitoring over all nuclear material and activities. Then there’s the “voluntary offer agreements” with the world’s original nuclear weapons states — China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the U.S. — typically for civilian sites.Finally, the IAEA has “item-specific agreements” with India, Israel and Pakistan — nuclear-armed countries that haven’t signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. That treaty has countries agree not to build or obtain nuclear weapons. North Korea, which is also nuclear armed, said it has withdrawn from the treaty, though that’s disputed by some experts.
Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, negotiated under then-President Barack Obama, allowed Iran to enrich uranium to 3.67% — enough to fuel a nuclear power plant but far below the threshold of 90% needed for weapons-grade uranium. It also drastically reduced Iran’s stockpile of uranium, limited its use of centrifuges and relied on the IAEA to oversee Tehran’s compliance through additional oversight.But President Donald Trump in his first term in 2018
, insisting it wasn’t tough enough and didn’t address Iran’s missile program or its support for militant groups in the wider Mideast. That set in motion years of tensions, including
Iran now enriches up to 60%, a short, technical step away from weapons-grade levels. It also has enough of a stockpile to build multiple nuclear bombs, should it choose to do so. Iran has long insisted its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, but the IAEA, Western intelligence agencies and others say Tehran had an organized weapons program up until 2003.is an extension of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war, intended to sow division in European societies and undermine support for Ukraine.
Follow the AP’s coverage of the war atEL ROCIO, Spain (AP) — Their faces, hats and flamenco dresses caked in dust, hundreds of pilgrims gathered around an ox-driven carriage with their icon of the Virgin Mary after slogging on foot, horses and wagons through dirt roads for nearly 12 hours.
The festive flamenco music stopped, the ubiquitous beer bottles and wine glasses were put down, and the Catholic faithful prayed an evening rosary by pine trees ina few miles from the hamlet of El Rocío.
