"Director General Yukiya Amano confirms that Teheran is observing all of its liabilities under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)," Russia's Permanent Representative to the IAEA Vladimir Voronkov told RIA Novosti on Friday.
He said Moscow’s first impression is “positive”, adding the report “meets the requirements of the agency’s resolution."
In its first regular report since the January 16 implementation of the JCPOA, the nuclear agreement, the IAEA confirmed on Friday that Iran has made good on its commitments with respect to the nuclear agreement.
The UN nuclear agency "has been verifying and monitoring the implementation by Iran of its nuclear-related commitments", IAEA said, adding that the agency was satisfied.
The report said Iran "has not pursued the construction of the existing Arak heavy water research reactor" and has "not enriched uranium" above levels authorized under the JCPOA.
It noted that "all stored centrifuges and associated infrastructure have remained in storage under continuous Agency monitoring" and that there has been no accumulation of enriched uranium through research and development.
Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council – the United States, France, Britain, China and Russia – plus Germany started to implement the JCPOA on January 16.
After the JCPOA went into effect, all nuclear-related sanctions imposed on Iran by the European Union, the Security Council and the US were lifted. Iran, in return, has put some limitations on its nuclear activities.
The nuclear agreement was signed on July 14, 2015 following two and a half years of intensive talks.
