The head of the U.N.'s nuclear agency said on Saturday that Iran pledged to restore cameras and other monitoring equipment at its nuclear sites.
The IAEA report said inspectors in January found that two cascades of IR-6 centrifuges at Fordo were configured in a way"substantially different" to what Iran had previously declared. That raised concerns that Iran was speeding up its enrichment.
Iran has sought to portray any highly enriched uranium particles as a minor byproduct of enriching uranium to 60% purity, which it has been doing openly for some time. Nonproliferation experts say Tehran has no civilian use for uranium enriched to even 60%. A stockpile of material enriched to 90%, the level needed for weapons, could quickly be used to produce an atomic bomb, if Iran chooses.
The U.S. unilaterally withdrew from the accord in 2018, reimposing crushing sanctions on Iran, which then began openly breaching the deal's restrictions. Efforts by the Biden administration, European countries and Iran to negotiate a return to the deal reached an impasse last summer.
