Iran security official warns IAEA resolution could push states to leave NPT

Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said in a post on X that the anti-Iran resolution adopted by the IAEA Board of Governors is "illegal, technically unfounded, entirely political, and unacceptable, bearing the clear imprint of U.S. and Zionist pressure." His remarks were reported by Mehr News Agency.

Rezaei warned that the IAEA's "politicized and disruptive actions will push countries toward withdrawing from the NPT." The statement came in reaction to the resolution passed by the IAEA Board of Governors concerning Iran's nuclear program.

The comments reflect Iran's rejection of the resolution, which Tehran attributes to external pressure. Rezaei's warning highlights concerns that continued actions by the IAEA could undermine the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

According to Mehr News, Rezaei's post on X was his response to the IAEA Board of Governors' resolution. The report did not provide further details on the resolution's content or the specific votes.
