Russia’s envoy to the Vienna talks on Iran’s nuclear program has deplored the leakage of UN atomic energy agency reports to the media.

Iran PressEurope: After Iran rejected the report released by the IAEA director-general and declared that it does not reflect Iran's broad cooperation with the Agency, the Russian envoy to Vienna also censured IAEA leaked report.

Mikhail Ulyanov wrote in a tweet, "As always, the IAEA Director General's reports on Iran were immediately leaked to mass media today. We can expect a lot of speculations in the days to come and heated debates in the IAEA Board of Governors next week."

Russia's envoy added that the leaked report would fuel speculations before the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) Board of Governors meeting next week.

Russia's envoy's remarks come after Iran's acting envoy to Vienna-based organizations, Mohammad Reza Ghaebi, condemned International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) unilateral report on the Vienna talks.

The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly urged the IAEA to avoid releasing detailed information about the nuclear activities, the envoy stated.

Although, from the beginning, the Islamic Republic believed that the ungrounded allegations against Iran had been made by the Zionist regime of Israel and the adversary countries and presented to the IAEA, it made efforts to have a technical interaction based on documents with the IAEA as the country has goodwill, he stressed.

To reject the allegations, the Islamic Republic expressed readiness to enter talks with the Agency and present technical explanations about the claims to refute those claims, Ghaebi noted. 

The envoy stressed that Iran described such a unilateral report as unfair, noting that the Islamic Republic of Iran sees this approach taken by the IAEA as destructive.

Several rounds of negotiations between Iran and the P4+1 group of countries, namely Britain, France, Germany, China, and Russia, have been held in the Austrian capital, Vienna, since April 2021. However, negotiations to remove anti-Iranian sanctions have been stalled for two months.
