Foreign ministry spokesman accuses IAEA chief Grossi of enabling war on Iran

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei accused IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi on Thursday of enabling a war against Iran through what he called a "biased report."

“This is too late, Mr. Grossi,” Baqaei wrote on X, responding to Grossi’s recent statement that the IAEA had no evidence Iran sought nuclear weapons.

“You obscured this truth in your absolutely biased report,” he said, adding it was used by the E3 and US to pass a resolution later exploited as a pretext for attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities.

“You turned the IAEA into a tool of convenience,” Baqaei said, accusing Grossi of "betraying the non-proliferation regime."
