A source told ISNA that there would be no resolution against Iran nuclear activities in upcoming IAEA board of governors meeting.

Tehran-ISNA-Member states of The International Atomic Energy Agency will hold their new meeting on 4-8 March in Vienna.

Earlier, U.N. nuclear watchdog said on Monday that Iran's stock of 60% uranium enriched has shrunk.

The IAEA estimated in its quarterly report that as of February 10, Iran's total enriched uranium stockpile was at 5,525.5 kilograms (about 12,182 pounds), an increase of 1,038.7 kilograms (2,289 pounds) since the last quarterly report in November 2023.

It also said that according to its assessment, Iran has an estimated 121.5 kilograms (267.8 pounds) of uranium enriched up to 60% purity, which represents a decrease of 6.8 kilograms (14.9 pounds) since the last report in November 2023.

A source told ISNA that there would be no resolution against Iran nuclear activities in upcoming IAEA board of governors meeting.

Meanwhile There is a possibility that the three European countries and the United States will repeat their claims against Iran's nuclear program in a "non-binding statement" next week.

It seems that European countries and the Israel are trying to maintain the pressure on Iran in different ways, but US administration, which is involved in the crisis in Gaza and Ukraine and the upcoming presidential elections, does not want to escalate the situation regarding Iran.
